227. Inner Critic Plus Holding Yourself Hostage

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.
