DAY 5

- End Negative Self-Talk -

 

 
So many of us were taught that punishment equals discipline…
That self-criticism keeps us in line. That if we’re not hard on ourselves, we’ll somehow fall apart. But what if the opposite is true?
In this video, Jenn shares the deeply personal story behind her own inner critic—and how she realized that harshness wasn’t protecting her... it was keeping her stuck.
 

“Your inner self-critic will keep you stuck. Compassion is what moves you forward.”

Today's Self-Love Invitation: 

(Choose one or blend them in your own beautiful way →) 
 
  • Write a list of what your inner critic says when love starts to feel close. Beside each one, write: “That was fear. I choose truth instead.”
  • Breathe into your heart space. Place your hand on your chest and say: “I don’t need to be perfect to be loved. I need to be open.”
  • Visualize a version of you with your heart fully open. How does she speak to herself? How does she move through the world? For 15 minutes, become her.

This is Day 5...
And you’re choosing grace over criticism.

"We’re taught to be hard on ourselves so we stay in line—but self-punishment doesn’t lead to growth. Only love and grace can do that."

More About Jenn & Graham

He makes it easy to reset.

“If I start spinning, he doesn’t get wound up in my chaos. He doesn’t shut down or snap. He just calmly says, “Let’s take a pause.” No shame. No silent treatment. He just stays grounded in love. And the way he does it—I never feel abandoned. He always reassures me that he’s coming back and that we’re good.”

“Before Jenn I didn’t know what to do when a woman’s emotions took over, but I learned to trust her outside of those moments to be able to stay centered.  I know she doesn’t want to say anything she regrets because of how she shows up outside of those moments.  Self-love creates an incredible space of dignity and I want to protect that for her.  So when I take space, it’s just as much for that as it is for me to get the breath that I need.”
