Regardless of the type of coaching we do, we all run into the brick walls built by that voice in our heads that says we’re not good enough in one way or another. We recognize it in ourselves and see it everyday in our clients. It’s the biggest block we all experience and one that really holds us back, in business, in relationships, even in discerning our life purpose. But how do we help our clients move past the critic in a way that is effective and sustainable without having to be a therapist? That’s what we’ll explore in From Adversary to Ally: How to Coach the Inner Critic.
