Episode 5 – That Voice in Your Head

The Purpose Patch

Following on from their foray into the murky world of perfectionism, Lou and Sal delve a bit deeper to uncover that whiny, negative, mean spirited, narky voice that sometimes crops up out of nowhere. You know, the one that tells you that you can't do things, or that you're just not good enough. Often you believe it without even questioning. Turns out Lou's is called Margo (yes, that's Margo Spargo). Sal hasn't named hers yet but she has had several battles in the muddy trenches with it recently.
