My Therapy Reflections #5 – Guests at the Dinner Table
Episode description
In this instalment of My Therapy Reflections, I take listeners into the therapy room and uncover two powerful parts of myself: the Inner Critic and the Workaholic. These parts have been working tirelessly for years to protect me, but today I uncover just how much they've been influencing my life. It’s a staggering realisation—understanding that while they were born out of a need to keep me protected, their methods are no longer serving my well-being. Join me as I explore how to acknowledge and appreciate their intentions, while convincing them to trust that the Self is ready to lead the way toward a healthier, more balanced life. This episode is all about introspection, healing, and the power of self-awareness.
Follow my journey living with mental illness and the hard-fought lessons learned along the way. Lived experience is the driving force of this podcast, and through this lens, my stories are told.
This is a raw, honest, and authentic account of how multiple psychological disorders have shaped my past and continue to influence my future.
