The American Association of University Women is presenting a talk by Lori Gorrell on Overcoming the Inner Critic: Four Common Obstacles and Solutions, on Monday, April 7, at 5:30 pm, at the Main Branch of the Mahoning County Public Library in Room 205. Gorrell is a Professional Certified Coach with the International Coaching Federation who founded Upward Solutions Coaching and Consulting in 2009. The program is open to the public.

Have you ever felt truly excited about a new opportunity, only to let self-doubt hold you back? Do you find yourself judging those closest to you or taking feedback particularly hard? Perhaps you often focus on the worst-case scenario? These patterns are common, but they don't have to control your life. On April 7, you'll identify your personal "show stoppers" and develop tailored strategies to overcome the inner critic that we all face. Join us to transform your relationship with self-doubt and unlock your next-level best self, all in less than an hour!

Gorrell has a Master of Science in Management, she specializes in executive leadership coaching, helping professionals and organizations achieve clarity, focus, and enhanced team performance.
