🎙️ Episode 9 – Silencing the Inner Critic: Rewriting the Leadership Narrative in You
Episode Summary:
In this episode, Dr. Fredrick D. Lee II confronts one of the most persistent barriers to effective leadership: the inner critic. That voice of self-doubt, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome can quietly undermine your confidence, especially when stepping into positions of influence. But here’s the truth—what you believe about yourself shapes how you lead others.
Dr. Lee explores how internal narratives are formed, why they show up stronger in leadership, and how to begin rewriting those beliefs into something empowering, liberating, and true. This episode offers tangible tools to help you silence negative self-talk, ground your leadership in self-awareness, and lead with clarity and courage.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✔️ How the inner critic forms—and why it’s louder in leadership
✔️ Signs you’re leading from fear instead of confidence
✔️ Three practical strategies to reframe your inner dialogue
✔️ How to align your leadership narrative with who you really are
✔️ “Change Moves” to apply in real-time when self-doubt creeps in
Change Moves:
- Name the Voice – Give your inner critic an identity so you can challenge it objectively.
- Rewrite the Script – Replace old beliefs with intentional affirmations rooted in truth.
- Practice Quiet Confidence – You don’t have to be loud to lead with certainty.
- Reflect, Don’t Ruminate – Learn from mistakes without letting them define you.
- Stand in Your Becoming – Leadership isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about growing through the questions.
