In this episode of Brave Moves, I’m exploring something that’s been a game-changer for me: understanding my inner committee (inner bittie shitty committee).
You know that mental boardroom where the critic, the people-pleaser, and the overthinker all fight for the mic? Yep, that one. It’s crowded in there. And if you’ve ever found yourself second-guessing, over-analyzing, or spiraling before making a decision, you’re definitely not alone.
Psychologists call this your inner committee, a mix of parts within you that all mean well but often pull in different directions. In this episode, I break down what’s really happening when those internal voices get loud and how to lead yourself with more clarity, calm, and confidence.
I’ll share how the Internal Family Systems (IFS) framework by Dr. Richard Schwartz helps us understand the roles of these inner “parts”:
When you understand how these parts operate, you can stop letting them run the show and let your true Self — the calm, confident, compassionate part of you — take the lead.
Here’s what I’ll cover:
This conversation is especially powerful for women juggling leadership, business, and personal growth — because confidence isn’t just about speaking up; it’s about knowing who inside you is doing the talking.
Takeaway:
You can’t silence your inner committee, but you can learn to chair the meeting. True confidence comes from leading yourself with clarity and compassion.
