Managing Your Inner Critic & Building Self-Confidence

Most of us struggle with confidence, self-doubt, imposter syndrome or a loud inner critic at some point in our lives.

For some of us, this might even be a familiar and recurring challenge we haven’t yet found sustainable solutions for mitigating.. Being affected by negative self-talk can be tiring, since it is human nature to catastrophise and focus disproportionately on our failures and shortcomings.  

Even the most outwardly successful and self-assured public figures, such as Ryan Reynolds and Michelle Obama, are not immune to self-esteem issues, and have openly talked about working on them.

We are all in this together, and we don’t have to be trapped in this mental cage of self-doubt – there are tried and tested strategies which we can learn and apply to free ourselves. 

Our Managing your Inner Critic & Building Self-Confidence is an experiential group coaching course providing participants with the tools and strategies needed to effectively increase one’s confidence and manage their inner critic.

This course is relevant for anyone struggling with confidence issues in any or all areas of life – be it work or home. Our approach is intuitive and straightforward enough that anyone, even children, can be taught these techniques for managing limiting thoughts.

Because building confidence doesn’t happen overnight and requires revision and repetition, we have incorporated peer coaching and structured exercises both within and between workshops. Our programme also provides a step-by-step approach in a coaching setting, and even experienced coaches can take away a new set of tools for their coaching toolkit.

As this is an experiential programme, participants will work on their own real-life scenarios in a confidential setting, seeking to identify and sustain changes that will serve them in their lives afterwards.

The course includes:  

• An in-depth exploration and application of the Bailey Balfour model of confidence
• A step-by-step guide to building confidence
