Have you ever done years of inner work and still felt like something’s missing?You understand yourself better. You can name your patterns. But somehow, you still end up in the same place, stuck in self-criticism, overthinking, or trying to “get it right.”In this episode of Everyday Intimacy, we uncover the missing piece in so much of the work we do on ourselves: why insight and effort alone often aren’t enough, and how tending to the body and nervous system can unlock real change.We talk about:<ul><li>Why self-compassion isn’t soft—it’s the most radical form of inner leadership.</li><li>How your inner critic and protective patterns are actually trying to help you.</li><li>Why healing requires the body, not just the mind.</li><li>What happens when we stop fixing ourselves and start listening instead.</li></ul>If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things and still can’t find ease, this conversation might be the missing piece.Soulla Demetriou is a Self-Compassion Expert.
