Do you struggle with a harsh inner voice that says things like “You should’ve done more,” or “What’s wrong with you?”

For highly sensitive people, self-criticism isn’t just a mindset issue—it’s a nervous system response. And once you understand where it comes from, you can begin to shift it.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why the inner critic forms (especially in HSPs)

  • How perfectionism, shame, and people-pleasing are protective responses

  • The link between nervous system dysregulation and negative self-talk

  • How to reframe your inner critic as a scared protector—not a villain

  • A simple practice (Pause → Name → Nourish) to begin softening your self-talk

If you’re ready to release the belief that you’re “too much” or “not enough,” this episode is your invitation to begin healing that inner voice with compassion—not force.

✨ Want to go deeper? Inside Rooted Resilience, we’re spending the entire month learning how to put all this knowledge into action so we can soften the inner critic and reclaim self-compassion. It’s not too late to join us: www.yogiranger.com/membership
