Is there a voice in your head that keeps telling you you're not qualified, not ready, or not the kind of woman who gets to want something more?
That voice has a name. In coaching, it's called the gremlin, and you probably know it better as your inner critic. It was built a long time ago to keep you safe, and it has been doing its job by keeping you small ever since. In this Thursday check-in, Kavita goes deeper into step two of last Monday's episode 334, facing your fears, and walks you through the exact practice she uses with clients to loosen that voice's grip so it stops running your career and life decisions.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- What the gremlin (your inner critic) actually is, why it formed, and how to recognize it the moment it arrives during a career transition
- The simple naming and picturing practice that separates that voice from you, so you stop mistaking self-doubt for your own honest judgment
- How to give the same voice a new job and a new message, so the energy that was keeping you stuck starts working for your next chapter instead
Press play to meet your inner critic, understand what it has been trying to protect you from, and turn its voice into one that lifts you toward what you actually want next.
