From Adversary to Ally: How to Coach the Inner Critic

Regardless of the type of coaching you do, we all run into the brick walls built by that voice in our head that says we’re not good enough in one way or another. We experience it ourselves as it prevents us from powerfully building our business,
has us believing one more certification or course is what we need, or keeps us from charging what we’re actually worth.

We see it everyday in our clients as:
lacking confidence,
feeling like an imposter,
even as procrastination and confusion.

It’s the biggest block we all experience and one that costs us so much time, energy, and money.

There are lots of great tools and techniques out there that help to address that inner critic, but the vast majority of those tools go only so deep. They tend to help for a little while but don’t really get to the root of what’s going on.

So, how do we help our clients move past the inner critic in a way that is effective and sustainable without having to be a therapist?
