The Voice Inside Your Head

Before you speak to a patient, lead a team, or have a hard conversation, you've already had one with yourself. Dr Kritika Mehra and Dr Jimmi Patel unpack "internal chatter," the running dialogue that shapes confidence, body language, and how we're perceived by everyone around us. Using a real scenario- a crown that doesn't quite fit, they explore two very different inner voices: Jimmi's protective "Mum" and challenging "Dad," versus Kritika's harsher self-critic. They also discuss when internal chatter is a warning worth listening to, like the moment Kritika trusted her gut on a complex Invisalign case and turned away the money. A candid look at self-talk, self-kindness, and building real confidence over time. (00:00) What Is Internal Chatter?
