Hyper-awareness is a gift—until it turns into hyper-fixation. This conversation dives into the thin line between being self-aware enough to grow and being so critical that you suffocate your creativity and your joy.
I reflect on what it costs us to stay stuck in our heads, always analyzing, never applauding. And I walk you through 5 soulful tools to quiet your inner critic, ground yourself in gratitude, and collect the evidence of your brilliance so you can keep showing up as you are—while you grow into who you’re becoming.
