Silencing the Inner Critic: Rewiring Your Mindset for 2026 Confidence
If you're ending the year exhausted, mentally overloaded, or stuck in a spiral of self-doubt… this episode is your reset. In today's conversation, we're breaking down the inner critic, the mental load of leadership, and why high-performing women struggle most with overthinking, decision paralysis, and confidence dips at this time of year.
