Banish Your Inner Critic: Silence the Voice of Self-Doubt to Unleash Your Creativity and Do Your Best Work by Denise R. Jacobs
3.0
Disclaimer: In a previous job, I hired Jacobs to present at a conference I ran, and her top-notch speaking contributed to me purchasing and then reading Banish Your Inner Critic.
Some of the exercises in reframing how you think I found helpful. Especially asking yourself deep down why this happening or what these fears really are. With creativity, so many of our fears are shame or other things we shouldn't be worried about.
That said, this took me forever to read. It felt like "everything and the kitchen sink" (even if it's clear that Jacobs has more thoughts and ideas), and at times, it was overwhelming, and I'd put it aside for a while.
