TONTS. - TONTS. Premieres on Tuesday 15th June

Episode Date: June 8, 2021

Hello! I'm Claire Tonti and this show is about how we see ourselves, our inner critic and our emotions. I want to talk about the stories we were told as kids and what they told us about who we should be. I made this podcast for this weird time we are living in. Each week I'm going to bring you a conversation with an interesting human who has made a thing, done a thing or who has been through a thing that will help us navigate this weird and wonderful experience of being human and make us feel less alone. Sending you lots of love and can't wait for you to subscribe ready for the first episode coming out next week. Love Tonts x Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I feel like there's a lot of pressure that's internalised pressure that comes from being a woman in this point in history and knowing I have choices and opportunities my mum never had and that my grandmothers certainly never had and that my great-grandmothers couldn't have dreamed of and so I sort of feel this sense of obligation to take them all at once and then end up crying. I remember standing in the wings and watching the audience filing in and I could see him sitting in the crowd and I thought, oh no, because he was going to see me be funny.

And I figured that would be a turn off. That inner critic was by far the hardest part of the whole process. And if anyone had a trick to turning that inner critic off, I would. Because the good writing happens when you put her to the side. Hello, it's me i'm claire tonti and this is tons a podcast about what's going on in our heads about our inner critic about what we think about ourselves and why we talk to ourselves the way we do about our patterns of behavior about our creativity and how to get it out there i think we're just living in such a strange time

and so I want to take a little bit of your time once a week to delve into it all, to look at womanhood, to look at the stories that we've been told as kids and why we ended up the way that we have and hopefully that might help just a little bit. I'm going to bring you a chat with a really interesting human who's made something or done something or been through something that I think will help us to learn. So subscribe wherever you get your podcasts from and I'll see you every Tuesday right here. All right. Love to you. Bye.
