Why Your Inner Critic Is Holding You Back (and How to Silence It)

Tired of that negative voice in your head sabotaging your business growth? Your inner critic isn't protecting you - it's keeping you small. In this episode of The Overwhelmed Entrepreneur, Cindy Gordon reveals why self-critical thoughts undermine entrepreneurial success and shares her Inner Critic Reset Method for turning self-doubt into self-confidence.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why your inner critic developed as protection but now prevents business growth
• How that "realistic" voice is actually just recycled fears and outdated programming
• The difference between genuine wisdom and fear disguised as caution
• The Inner Critic Reset Method: Awareness reality check, source investigation, and confident reframing
• Why collecting evidence of your wins is crucial for silencing negative self-talk
• How to take action despite the critical voice (not because it's gone)

Perfect for: Female entrepreneurs struggling with self-doubt, business owners who second-guess their decisions, overwhelmed professionals whose inner critic undermines their confidence, and anyone ready to stop letting fear make their business decisions.

Episode Highlights: "Your inner critic isn't trying to protect you. It's actually one of the biggest obstacles standing between you and the business success you're working toward."

"Confidence isn't the absence of self-doubt - it's the willingness to move forward while the doubt is still there."

"The most successful entrepreneurs didn't silence their inner critics - they just stopped taking business advice from their fears."
