Are You "Shoulding" On Yourself? with Linda Kroll
Tips for the Transition | The Career Roadmap
11/17/21 • 42 min
Too often we “should” on ourselves. You know what I mean. It might sound like, “I should be doing this.” Or, “I should do what they want me to do.” You might do it to help you stay focused, motivated, or—get this—even stuck in some situations, relationships, or career paths that you could leave.
When you learn how to be more compassionate with yourself, you give yourself room to explore what you truly WANT and stop doing what you think you SHOULD.
My guest, Linda Kroll, an IFS therapist, mediator, and author, shares how we can become inspired to make choices in all areas of our lives that ultimately work to our advantage and highest good.
Tune in to learn how to:
- practice compassionate SELF care
- let go of what holds you back
- unburden pain from the past
- and relate from your heart
