Questions about the quiz

A critic you can name is a critic you can answer. The method behind this site is that grand affirmations bounce off a hard day, while graded, believable lines land, and naming the specific voice you are answering is the first half of that matching. Once you know which of the six runs your self-talk, the lines that meet it are much easier to find.

Six questions, each a moment from an ordinary week: the mirror, a win, the scroll, the ask, lights out. You tap the reaction that sounds most like the voice in your head, and the pattern across your answers points to one of six inner-critic archetypes. It takes about a minute.

The quiz is free and your answers never leave your browser. If you want the full reading, we ask for an email; that unlocks the reading and the 21-day PDF, adds you to the early-access list for the Her Affirmations app, and reserves you a discount code for launch, with your archetype attached so the emails actually fit you.

No. It is a reflection tool, not a diagnosis, and the archetypes are patterns of self-talk, not clinical categories. If your inner voice is relentless, or it is affecting sleep or daily life week after week, a doctor or therapist is the right next step, and going is a strength.

Where your critic's pattern usually comes from, what it tends to cost, five lines from our library written to answer it in a voice you can actually believe, and one line to take to bed tonight. Plus a card you can save or send to a friend who hears the same voice, and The 21-Day Positive Brainwash, a free downloadable PDF built for your critic: one line a day for three weeks, drawn from the same library.
