Why Beating Yourself Up Backfires

That harsh voice in your head?

It’s not keeping you sharp—it’s keeping you stuck.

Self-criticism activates your nervous system’s fight-or-flight mode. It drains your energy, hijacks your focus, and shuts down your learning.

But there’s another way.

You can turn your inner critic into an inner ally—with self-compassion.

It’s not fluff. It’s neuroscience.

What shifts when you speak to yourself the way you’d speak to a friend?

DM me “ALLY” if you’re ready to retrain that inner voice and lead from calm, clarity, and confidence.
