EP82 - Negative Self-Talk
“I am a failure.”
“I hate my body. Why would anyone find me attractive?”
“I am a disappointment.”
“Why can’t I do anything right?”
“I don’t deserve love or connection.”
“Everyone is better than me. I will never be good enough or worthy.”
Have you ever said any of these phrases, or something similar, to yourself? These are all evidence of negative self-talk, a common yet still unhealthy pattern of thinking. We want you to consider: if a friend talked to you the way you talk to you, would you still be friends with them? If the answer is “no,” it is time for a change!
Join us as we shine a light on negative self-talk. At its worst, negative self-talk has the ability to devastate our mental health, relationships, parenting, career, and friendships. We are all subject to negative self-talk from time to time, but when it takes over how we feel, talk, and value ourselves, it is officially unhealthy and worthy of your attention to change. Let us help you start the journey towards self-compassion, self-worth, and positive self-talk!
