So many of us move through the world hidden in plain sight. We smile, we perform, we play small, and we present curated versions of ourselves to be more acceptable, more palatable, more loved. But underneath the masks, there is often a deep ache: the longing to be seen—not for the role we play, not for the version of ourselves that’s easy to love, but for the truth of who we really are. In this episode of My Healing Is Your Healing, we’re diving into the tender and often terrifying experience...

Through me...

She says you’re behind, too much, not enough, and definitely not ready. Today we stop handing her the mic. In this episode, we unpack what the inner critic really is (hint: a nervous-system bodyguard stuck in the past), why she gets so loud, and how to turn her volume down without declaring war on yourself. Yo...

Through ...
