About this listen
In this episode, Asha takes a walk while reflecting on a major personal breakthrough: learning to embrace her inner critic instead of fighting it. She shares insights from an 8-week coaching experience with confidence coach Sylvia Brands (Wrangle Your Inner Critic program) and dives into how radical self-acceptance has been a game-changer in her personal growth journey.
If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, high expectations, or feeling like you're "too much" or "not enough," this episode is for you.
Asha challenges the idea that our inner critic is something to silence and instead explores how listening to and nurturing that voice can lead to greater self-trust, confidence, and alignment.
Key Topics Covered:
🔹 Understanding the Inner Critic – Why we develop it and how it impacts our self-worth
🔹 High Standards vs. Self-Criticism – The fine line between ambition and self-sabotage
🔹 Radical Self-Acceptance – How embracing your sensitivity, fears, and wounds can empower you
🔹 Shifting Mindsets – Moving from "fixing yourself" to truly loving and trusting yourself
🔹 Business & Authenticity – Why Asha is stepping away from social media and choosing long-form content instead

💬 "What if you didn’t treat those parts of yourself like a problem? What if you met them with the same compassion and love that you would have for a child?"
💬 "My sensitivity is my superpower. It makes me a better friend, a better guide, and a better healer."
💬 "You know who you are. The things you think are a problem probably aren't—they're areas where you need more love and acceptance."
