Dominic Arpin, a well-known host and producer, confronts a common issue faced by many individuals: the struggle with a negative inner voice. In his book, “Life Begins Where Fear Ends,” Arpin discusses how this self-critical voice has affected his self-confidence and self-esteem.
Understanding the Negative Inner Voice
In an interview on the show “Dans le blanc des yeux,” hosted by Sophie Durocher, Arpin shared insights into his personal battles. He emphasized the varying intensity of this inner voice, which often undermines his confidence in social situations. “There are moments when it’s more intense than others,” he stated.
Challenging Self-Doubt
- Arpin expressed that he has lived with this voice throughout his life.
- He has learned to channel it positively, moving from a state of being suppressed to using it as motivation.
- He highlighted the importance of accepting moments of uncertainty and being present.
“Today, I use it to my advantage,” he explained. “For a long time, it crushed me and prevented me from pursuing my dreams.” Arpin revealed that running has significantly contributed to his mental health. “I fight against this voice by doing things my mind tells me I cannot do,” he added.
