Ep 147: Unleashing Creativity and Passion by Befriending Your Inner Critic

The Purposeful Career Podcast

Are you at that midlife stage, feeling stuck in a corporate rut or mulling over a complete reinvention? Let me, Carla Hudson, guide you through reigniting your passion and creativity, and help you tackle the internal barriers that are holding you back. We will confront and conquer our inner critics, not by fighting them, but by truly understanding them.
As someone juggling a corporate career and a business, I can tell you that it's not easy. The fear and self-doubt can be overwhelming. But what if we could befriend our inner critique? What if we could find its origin, empathise with it and quieten it down? Together, we will explore this often neglected part of ourselves and learn how to manage it. To assist us, I will provide an arsenal of questions that will help us understand our inner critique and give it peace.
Lastly, we will delve into the significance of embracing our inner critic. We will discover that it's not an enemy, but rather a misguided friend that just wants the best for us. By empathising and understanding our inner critic, we can find peace and pursue our dreams without fear. So, are you ready to quieten your inner critic and reignite your career? Join me as we step into the life we desire.
