Hopefully, this episode will inspire you to throw off the shackles of your inner critic, and live as your true essence embodied.

SHow Notes

DEFINITION of CURBING YOUR INNER CRITIC: Telling that negative voice in your head that prevents you from loving yourself, believing in yourself, and following your dreams to sit down and shut up. Often we are our own worst enemy, but this can change with mindful intention.

MAIN POINTS

• Let your ego die: Make yourself a vessel of universal love, and thus your inner critic will die.
• The "negative ego" is rampant and out of control in our society. This causes so much pain in each of us.
• The ego causes us to be in separation consciousness, when we should shift toward unity consciousness of universal love. (The other IS you)
• Even if you can't kill the ego, at least notice when the "negative ego" is in control of your mind.
• Social media is killing us by getting us stuck in ego consciousness and inner critic mode.
• If you see something you want in somebody else, take it as a sign that it is yours and you should move toward getting it for yourself actively.
• Jenna and Amber discuss how their own inner critics take them down, and try to talk through it together.
• People are only putting up their best moments on social media (including us!), so don't let it get you down! Probably everyone is suffering behind the scenes.
• Choose love in every moment, that is the medicine.
• If you are beginning to go into a downward spiral of comparison, move in action toward what you want to achieve in the world instead of dwelling on what you don't have.
• Move into your trigger and turn your trigger into inspiration to get what you want.
• Take action toward your own heart path

​CHALLENGE/INVITATION: Identify the main story your inner critic tells you that is taking you down. Figure out where that story originated from, and move toward healing that original wound with love and acceptance. Take on a ritual that focuses on redirecting that negative self-talk into positive, empowering dialogue.
