We’re kicking off October with a truth bomb: your inner critic isn’t the enemy—it’s a clumsy protector with terrible delivery. In this episode, Joree unpacks how that harsh voice keeps you stuck in perfectionism, comparison, fear, and shame, and shows you how to pause, get curious, and rewire it into a compassionate ally. Drawing on mindfulness, research-informed practices (hat tip to Kristin Neff), and real-life examples, you’ll learn how to turn down the volume on self-criticism so you can turn up authenticity, boundaries, and embodied joy.
