In this insightful episode of Uncovering Your Hidden Motives, Austin Conner, M.Div., LPC, and Lynn Roush, LPC, explore how understanding the purpose behind your self-criticism can help you respond to it with greater compassion instead of fighting against yourself.
They’ll share four practical steps for managing your inner critic, from recognizing when it takes over to listening for what it’s trying to protect, validating its intentions, and gently redirecting it. You’ll also discover how to bring the truth of the gospel into the parts of your heart that still struggle to believe they are loved, forgiven, and safe with God.
As you begin to loosen the inner critic’s grip, you may encounter feelings you’ve kept hidden, including fear, sadness, or grief. But with time, patience, and support from trusted relationships, you can begin to experience greater freedom from shame and self-doubt. Rather than trying to silence or destroy your inner critic, you can learn to help it step back so you can hear Jesus’ voice more clearly.
Join us to discover how offering yourself the same grace Jesus offers you can help transform your inner critic from a harsh judge into a wiser guide—and make more room for healing, confidence, and spiritual growth.
