Listen "ep 18: My INNER CRITIC is at it again!"
Episode Synopsis
Hi – we're Nicky and Carrie, 2 ADHD coaches figuring it out together...So, picking up where we left off in ep.17... we briefly recap 'our Chimp', and how – with highly variable success – it tries hamfistedly to help us!Then we look at our suite of inner voices* (with a detour about motivation), and how we can perhaps spot the origin of our infamous ‘Inner Critic'. We touch on something called Internal Family Systems and how a specific inner voice may actually be a remnant part of e.g. our 4 year old self.We also explore how we can start to take charge, including:“Passengers on a bus”Increasing awarenessInterrogating the evidenceDisempowering the negativeTaking control through action…and, of course, enlisting the assistance of our good old friend: The Pause!**with huge thanks to Mel Robbins/The Mel Robbins Podcast ep. 287 and Dr Ethan Kross, PhD, and his book, ‘Chatter’.If you enjoy our podcast, PLEASE would you take a min to help us reach others by subscribing, rating the show, and/or leaving us a review - and telling all your friends : ) – it really does help us 'connect'!You can see photos & reels and keep in touch with us on instagram:@theadhdconnection_podcast– and find out more about us, and/or contact us, at:carrieovertoncoaching.comwww.nickyshipp.coachThanks so much for joining us on our ADHD journey,Carrie and Nicky
