Inner Critic (Inner Terrorist Hell Demon)
On this episode, we are doing a deep dive into understanding an often misunderstood aspect of so many peoples' lives and experiences: the Inner Critic. According to the Diagnostic and Statistic Manual, each mental health aliment than falls under or is co-morbid to 'personality disorders' has faulty (or negative) self perception as one of diagnostic criteria. Enter the Inner Critic. We unearth how viewing our low self esteem through the lens of this learned, maladaptive coping strategy can empower us to get un-stuck and maybe learn to love ourselves more. And, most importantly, stop us from stopping ourselves and keeping ourselves stuck.

Episode One: Limerence
On today's episode, we are diving straight into a topic that impacts so many of us with mental health diagnosis or those of us who have chronically felt unable to get love 'right'. I share my experiences with romantic love and the meaning I made of it all- how maladaptive it was, how much pain it caused me, how much it disrupted my life and my other experiences- and then we get into what exactly limerence is, who is likely to be impacted by it, how it can manifest and, finally, where to go once this awareness has dropped into your conscious mind.
Please leave feedback! I would love to hear what was helpful, what you'd like more of on the next deep dive and what insights or information you need more of. Find me at www.katiedoestarot.com or on instagram (always on IG!) @katiejbirch

Already There Trailer
Already There the Podcast is where research meets woo and where symptoms are lived experiences to be believed and looked at with curiosity.
I'm Katie, and I've been to the darkest parts of my psyche and found the worst thing to be true: the only way out is through. I say worst because there is no shortcut, there is no way away from ourselves. If we want the life we want, if we want to not want to leave our lives, we need to go inside the pain to get what we need. But like I said, I've done it a time or two so while what I offer certainly is no shortcut, it is left-handed path vibes. Meaning, these spicy psychology modalities and methods are the lightening path.
I am Katie, your Dark Mommy sherpa with extra flashlights.
Let's play in the dark. We're already there anyway.
