Send Me a Message! In the next chapter of My Therapy Reflections, I share a very significant IFS (Internal Family Systems) breakthrough that has reframed how I view some of my darkest moments. When life feels too loud and too bright (which is most of the time), I tend to mentally retreat, like hiding in a tunnel—a cold, dark place that where I sometimes I can sleep for days. But this session revealed something surprising: my internal parts weren't trying to trap me there like I had thought. They were waiting at the top, encouraging me to come back.Even my inner critic—the voice I've long seen as cruel and as my enemy—was there trying to help. Not to tear me down, but to shield me from a world I'm not built for. This unexpected shift helped me see that every part of me, even the ones I've battled with, have been trying to protect me in their own, unique way.I also uncovered a younger part of myself, frozen at age 15, holding trauma I hadn't accessed in years. That story continues in Part B. But in this episode, it's all about beginning to see your inner system not as broken, but as misunderstood. Maybe, like me, you'll start to feel compassion for the parts of yourself you once feared.Support the showTo support the show, CLICK HEREYou can follow me on Instagram: @elliot.t.waters

Ever stood at your own success party and talked people OUT of celebrating you? That's exactly what I did at my own book launch, paralyzed by a merciless inner critic that had me rewriting the same book SIX times over SEVEN years. In this raw and revealing episode, I pull back the curtain on my battle with self-criticism and share the exact moment I realized my inner critic (whom I named "Esmeralda") was sabotaging my leadership and creative voice. Even after coaching C-suite executives at Fortune 200 companies, that voice telling me "I'm not good enough" still tried to drown out my achievements. The journey to authentic leadership isn't about silencing your critic forever—it's about recognizing it and moving forward anyway. In this episode, we cover:Why your inner critic gets loudest right before your most important leadership moments, and the counterintuitive approach that turns down its volumeMy embarrassing confession about what I said to guests at my own book launch party (and how it reveals the sneaky way imposter feelings show up even after achieving success)The simple naming technique that instantly creates distance between you and your critical inner voiceHow trying to avoid criticism actually smothers your authentic leadership voice and creative expressionThe question I ask myself whenever self-doubt creeps in that instantly reconnects me with my leadership purpose and silences criticismConnect with me on LinkedIn or join my monthly newsletter for exclusive strategies that go beyond what we cover in the podcast—because your leadership journey matters, especially when your voice shakes.About the Leadership Presence podcastLeadership Presence | Mastering the Inner Work of Leadership is your guide to leading with less ego and more soul.

In this episode of the Stellar Rae podcast, Dr. Laura Gallagher discusses the importance of self-acceptance and its relationship with self-growth. Drawing from her experiences at NASA and her journey in organizational psychology, she emphasizes that self-acceptance is not the opposite of self-improvement but rather a crucial component that enhances personal development. The conversation explores the psychological safety in workplaces, the journey of self-discovery, and the paradox of self-acceptance and self-improvement, particularly for high achievers. In this conversation, Dr. Laura Gallaher and Stella Rae explore the complexities of stress, self-acceptance, and personal growth. Dr. Gallaher emphasizes that stress is a subjective experience influenced by the meanings we assign to situations. She discusses the importance of self-acceptance and offers practical strategies for overcoming self-judgment, including the practice of 'taking credit' for personal achievements. The dialogue also delves into the relationship between the inner critic and the inner champion, advocating for a compassionate approach to self-talk. Dr. Gallaher shares daily habits that foster self-acceptance, including forgiveness and self-reflection, ultimately encouraging listeners to cultivate resilience and emotional well-being.Connect with Dr Gallaher on LinkedIn! https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-gallaher-phd/ Take the self acceptance quiz: https://www.gallaheredge.com/sa-quiz-lpChapters00:00 Introduction to Self-Acceptance02:00 The NASA Experience and Psychological Safety04:56 The Journey to Self-Acceptance09:53 Defining Self-Acceptance vs. Self-Esteem15:04 The Paradox of Self-Acceptance and Self-Improvement20:02 The Importance of Self-Acceptance in High Achievers23:47 Understanding Stress: A Personal Perspective28:01 The Journey to Self-Acceptance32:47 Practical Steps to Self-Improvement39:01 Navigating the Inner Critic and Champion44:05 Daily Habits for Self-AcceptanceEnjoy & dont forget to tweet/ig story me a screenshot of you listening!MY NEW WEBSITE!!

In this episode, you'll learn: How to identify your human design type and what it suggests about your natural decision-making process Practical ways to work with your energy instead of constantly fighting against it How to rewrite limiting stories that come from comparing your path to people with completely different designs Have you ever noticed how we're all expected to work the same way? Focus on one thing. Follow a linear path. Stick with it until you "succeed." I spent years feeling like I was doing something wrong because I couldn't make myself fit that mold. I'd get excited about a project, dive in deep, then feel my energy shift to something completely different. And instead of trusting that shift, I'd beat myself up for being "unfocused" or "lacking commitment." Sound familiar? Then I stumbled across human design. It gave me a fascinating lens to see myself differently. I was a Manifesting Generator with wiring that craves variety and multiple channels for my energy. What's stuck with me is how it's shifted the story I tell myself about who I am. We all carry these stories. Stories about being "too much" or "not enough." Too slow or too impulsive. Too quiet or too loud. And we base these stories on comparing ourselves to people who might be operating from completely different blueprints. Your human design suggests why certain people thrive under pressure while you need space to process. Why some people can make snap decisions while others need time to feel into what's right. Why pushing harder often gets you absolutely nowhere. It offers something powerful – permission to stop forcing yourself into someone else's mold. Today our guest is Erin Claire Jones. She's helped thousands of people explore their human design and use it as a tool for better decision-making and stronger relationships. She's offering a perspective that might just change how you see yourself and others.

Send us a textWhen Mark MacNicol stepped into a maximum security prison in 2016 to lead a theatre project with inmates serving life sentences, he couldn't have predicted how profoundly it would change his career trajectory. A writer, director, and producer by trade, MacNicol found himself captivated by the therapeutic potential of creative expression—particularly for those who would never identify as "creative types."This revelation birthed Anonymous Drama, a groundbreaking approach that has now touched over 5,000 lives across prisons, rehabilitation centers, and community settings. At its core, the program challenges participants to examine the incessant conversation happening in their minds 24/7. While most of us accept this internal dialogue as simply "our thoughts," MacNicol's approach separates these voices into distinct characters—particularly the inner critic (negative) and the inner mentor (positive).What makes this methodology revolutionary is its accessibility. MacNicol designed it specifically for people with zero interest in drama or therapy, yet who desperately need both. Through character development, improvisations, and script work, participants explore deeply personal issues through fictional characters, creating a protective layer of anonymity that makes vulnerability possible. The culmination—a live script reading before family and community members—has facilitated countless reconciliations between participants and estranged loved ones.For those unable to attend in-person sessions, MacNicol has developed "Find your Mentor," a smartphone-accessible program that leverages custom AI to represent one's inner mentor. As he explains, "Rather than being trapped in a conversation in your head listening to the inner critic, we want you to engage with your inner mentor." This integration of technology with therapeutic principles demonstrates MacNicol's forward-thinking approach to emotional wellbeing.Whether you're struggling with addiction, involved in the justice system, or simply seeking a better relationship with yourself, MacNicol's work offers a unique pathway forward.

We explore how letting go of the need to control can lessen our fears and show us that true safety isn't about planning every detail—it's about trusting the journey and remembering the loving forces that guide us.

Don't let that negative voice bring you down anymore. Your inner critic is the voice that says you won't make it, you're not good enough, and you're not deserving of success. So many of us battle with this voice for years, especially when we branch out to do something new. Let's face it: As female entrepreneurs, our biggest obstacle is not competitors. It's also not the market. It's ourselves. After having dealt with this myself for many years, I've come up with a framework that's helped me not only deal with this voice, but silence it. In this episode, you will learn about: The amazing accomplishments that your inner critic could be holding you back from. How societal expectations and culture influence our inner critic. How some people use high standards as a scapegoat to fail. What happens when we listen to our inner critic, and why you shouldn't. How to create your own proof portfolio and why it helps. Examples of times I've transformed the narrative (and you can too). One question to ask yourself to instill greater confidence. How to use the 24-hour rule to make better decisions.
