Join my upcoming Positive Intelligence© Program: https://www.vickibaird.com/positive-intelligence-purchase-vicki-bairdJoin my upcoming   In this episode of Intuition: Your Success Compass, we're talking about something women in business don't hear enough—it's okay to celebrate yourself. Actually, it's necessary. If you've ever downplayed your success, brushed off compliments, or felt awkward about sharing your win, then this one's for you. I share how societal conditioning (and a few saboteurs like the Judge and Pleaser) can mute your confidence and keep you from acknowledging the amazing things you've done. Come on! We want to know! We'll explore the difference between self-assuredness and ego, and why authentic self-celebration is a service. One that is not just to yourself, but to those watching you lead. You'll get practical tools like how to keep an achievement journal, build a “brag buddy” system, and start owning your growth without second-guessing it. If you're ready to replace perfectionism with self-respect and finally embrace the power of your own story, listen in.   

In Episode 37 of Y-Chromes, CannCon and Cam Cooksey kick off the show with a candid conversation about health, discipline, and personal accountability. They share their own struggles with consistency, the pressure to maintain physical wellness, and how mental roadblocks often sabotage progress more than anything external. The episode explores the importance of establishing structure, dealing with the temptation to quit, and finding motivation even when energy is low. With humor and unfiltered honesty, they reflect on the internal battles men face, especially the fear of failure and the voice of self-doubt that creeps in when the world feels overwhelming. This episode is a raw, real look at what it means to fight for control of your body, mind, and habits, and why it's worth it.

In this episode of the Dethroning Your Inner Critic podcast, we're diving into the hidden pattern that keeps so many of us stuck—spinning in “why” instead of creating from “what.” I'm unpacking how your Inner Critic convinces you that you need to fix yourself before you can finally feel free, successful, or at peace—and how that keeps you circling the same stories, goals, and fears without real transformation. But there's another way. When you stop analyzing your past and start asking, “What would it look like to live from my future self right now?”—everything changes. If you've been caught in the loop of overthinking, second-guessing, or waiting to feel ready, this conversation is your invitation to break the cycle and finally begin building a life from vision, presence, and power. ✨ Tune in—you're closer than you think.   Your weekly reflection questions: Am I stuck in asking “why” instead of deciding “what” I want to believe, feel, or create today? What would shift if I embodied the energy of my future self right now—before anything outside of me changes? How is my Inner Critic keeping me spinning in analysis, instead of moving me toward aligned action?   Looking for the Redesign Your Future: The Hidden Truth About Transformation Masterclass? >> You can find all the info here

Do you find yourself chasing a sense of worth that always feels just out of reach? Many of us hold ourselves hostage with our inner critic, especially when it comes to overcoming pornography. I see this pattern frequently in coaching sessions where clients believe they can't experience happiness or peace until they've "earned it" through extended periods without viewing porn. In this episode, I explore how the inner critic often mimics external voices from our past - parents, religious leaders, and societal norms. I share a four-step approach to working with your inner critic that allows you to move from a place of shame to one of self-compassion and authentic change.

Many of us suffer from Imposter Syndrome, when the inner critic in us doesn't think we are good enough. Even former Prime Minister Dame Jacinda Ardern spoke about it in her speech at Yale this week. Alison Shamir is an expert in this field and has written a book called Conquer Your Imposter, a guide to help high achievers reclaim their self-worth. She told Jesse how we can conquer Imposter Syndrome.

Send us a textThe Customer Success Playbook podcast delivers a thought-provoking exploration of confidence building in this captivating episode featuring Kristen Nolan of Interview Valet. Hosts Roman Trebon and Kevin Metzger guide a discussion that dives into overcoming self-doubt and imposter syndrome. Kristen shares her personal journey from questioning "who cares what I have to say?" to becoming a confident podcast guest who now coaches others. With refreshing honesty about her own struggles and triumphs, she reveals how facing fears head-on can lead to remarkable personal and professional growth.Detailed AnalysisBuilding confidence isn't just a personal development goal—it's a critical professional skill, especially in customer success roles where relationships and credibility are paramount. This episode tackles the universal challenge of silencing the inner critic that so often holds professionals back from reaching their full potential.Kristen Nolan's approach to confidence building centers on one powerful concept: taking action despite doubt. She candidly shares her own hesitation when first approached about being a podcast guest, revealing that her immediate reaction was, "Who cares what I have to say?" This transparent admission resonates because it reflects a common barrier many customer success professionals face—questioning their expertise or value.What makes Kristen's perspective particularly valuable for the customer success playbook is her emphasis on how facing fears creates a feedback loop of growth. By "ripping the bandaid off" with her first podcast appearance (which she admits was "pretty terrible"), she developed skills and insights that now help her better serve clients. This practical example demonstrates how pushing through discomfort directly enhances client relationship capabilities.The conversation takes an even more profound turn when Kristen addresses self-sabotage—identifying it as one of the most significant barriers to achievement. For customer success professionals, this insight is especially relevant, as hesitation in challenging client conversations or strategic recommendations can undermine effectiveness. Kristen's advice to visualize goals and map the path backward (her "Z to A thinking") offers a tactical approach to overcome this tendency.Perhaps most powerfully, the discussion draws a connection to broader life satisfaction, referencing the common deathbed regret of "not having the courage to live authentically." This reminder elevates the conversation beyond mere professional development to touch on how building confidence impacts overall life fulfillment—a holistic perspective that aligns perfectly with the integrated work-life approach many customer success professionals strive to achieve.Now you can interact with us directly by leaving a voice message at https://www.speakpipe.com/CustomerSuccessPlaybookPlease Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe.

In this fun and frank conversation, I welcome back Britt Frank—licensed psychotherapist, speaker, and author of The Science of Stuck and her new book Align Your Mind: Tame Your Inner Critic, and Make Peace with Your Shadow Using the Power of Parts Work. We explore the empowering intersection of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and shadow work, reframing our inner critic as a misguided protector, not a predator. Britt offers brilliant insights on how parts work allows us to embrace the fullness of who we are—including our compulsive habits, younger selves, and the traits we've tried to exile. Together, we dive into the potency of perimenopause and midlife as a rebirth—an invitation to reclaim our true essence and align with our deepest values. This conversation is a rallying cry to honor your wholeness, connect with your parts, and live from unapologetic authenticity.   ✨ What We Explore Together Shadow work means reconnecting with everything that's true about you—including your gifts. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is not separate from shadow work—it is shadow work in practice. The inner critic can become your internal coach when you understand it's trying to protect you. Our compulsive behaviors are survival strategies, not character defects. Reparenting your younger parts creates emotional momentum and deep healing. Midlife is not a decline—it's an initiation into your second becoming. Self-worth does not kill ambition. In fact, the more full of self-love you are, the more you can create.

Oh heyyy there, fellow parent-people struggling through the beautiful chaos! In this episode, I spill ALL the tea about how that nasty little voice in your head (you know the one that's all "you're failing at this parenting gig") isn't just making YOU feel like garbage—it's actually rewiring your kid's emotional thermometer too!

Send us a textGrace transforms the caregiver journey from a pursuit of perfection to a path of authentic love and service. When our inner critic shouts that we've fallen short - that we should be more patient, more organized, more everything - grace gently reminds us we're human, doing sacred work one imperfect day at a time.My own journey began at 16 when my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. By the time I was 20, she could no longer communicate clearly. Yet her voice lives on as my internal cheerleader, echoing the patient encouragement she offered during my childhood struggles with reading. "Keep going, honey. You're doing better than you think," she'd say beside me at the kitchen table. This growth mindset rooted in grace stands in stark contrast to the harsh inner critic we all battle.The critic shows up in our lowest moments - when we lose patience, forget appointments, or simply run out of emotional bandwidth. It replays our mistakes at 3 AM and tells us we're failing. But Romans 8:1 reminds us "there is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." God's grace isn't a reward for getting it right; it's a gift freely given, especially when we feel we've gotten it all wrong. Through practical steps like pausing to identify unhelpful thoughts, reframing criticism with truth, and speaking grace aloud to ourselves, we can quiet that critical voice.You are doing better than you think. Your effort matters. Your showing up matters. Download our free "Grace for the Journey" reflection guide to help silence your inner critic and embrace the growth that happens in this challenging, beautiful season of caring.

Playwright, director and drama therapy advocate Mark Macnicol shares how creating scripts and characters, even if you have zero interest in “drama”, can help untangle emotional knots that feel too overwhelming to confront directly.We explore how this approach, born in places like maximum-security prisons and inspired by the therapeutic roots of improv, can help you step outside your own story just enough to see it clearly. Learn how the three core characters, the Protagonist, the Inner Critic, and the Inner Mentor mirror the ongoing dialogue in your own mind, and how naming these voices creates the space for intention, self-compassion, and conscious choice.This isn't about becoming someone else. It's about finally hearing yourself.Because once you recognize who's talking in your head, you get to decide who's actually in charge.Visit us at:www.theselfhelpantidote.com
