She is a best-selling author of The Big Fat Lies Women Tell Themselves and Reform Your Inner Mean Girl. This conversation is off the charts! We go deep and we cover a lot of ground. We talk about death, our inner critic and also our own personal inner voice of worry. Amy shares what it takes to silence, or at least quiet, that inner voice every single day. She always has so many things to say about women’s rights and equality and our ability to keep doing everything even though our plate is full. You’ll hear us talk about the changes that are taking place in the world and Amy’s work is definitely part of that change. “Your inner life is so similar to other people’s inner life. You are not damaged. You are not unloveable. You are not weird. It’s the human experience. We all have these voices that beat us up. We all experience not feeling good enough. There is nothing wrong with you.”~ Amy Ahlers Toward the end of the conversation, Amy and I do an exercise where we share our personal inner worries. I hope you’ll listen.
