Description	We all carry an internal critic in our head, and it never shuts up! Fortunately, there’s a better way. Learn to turn that voice from enemy to ally. You will learn and practice actual techniques to change the inner conversation from critic to coach, from blockage to empowerment.
Questions Answered	What is that voice in my head and why does it keep yelling at me! How do I get my inner critic to shut up? How do I overcome my own blocks and fears? How do I know when I'm being overly critical - or seeing real problems? How do I overcome procrastination? How do I overcome my traumatic childhood? I am very critical of my self - how do I treat myself better? My thoughts tend to run in a negative vein - how do I get more positive? What is the "Secret" and how does it apply to me and my reality? How do I empower myself and feel free in my creativity and performance?
