Is there an unrelenting hypercritical voice inside your head, constantly telling you that you aren’t smart enough, attractive enough, successful enough, or worthy of love? Have you ever asked yourself why this harsh, judgmental voice is so damn ruthless? Negative self—talk is all too common for women.

So, how can you stop holding yourself to unreasonable standards, turn the volume down on your unkind mind, and give yourself a little self—love and acceptance instead?

Using powerful and practical skills drawn from cutting—edge neuroscience, you’ll learn how to flip the switch on these toxic self—critical thoughts, move past the “not good enough” mentality standing between you and the happiness you deserve, and supercharge your confidence and self—compassion!
