Why we care so much about what other people think of us

In this episode I dive deep into something almost all of us wrestle with, the craving for validation. From childhood praise to social media likes, we’ve been conditioned to measure our worth through other people’s approval. But when does that desire cross the line into people pleasing, self abandonment and exhaustion?

I share stories from my own life, the hidden costs of chasing approval and why rejection feels so painful even as adults. Together, we explore the cycle of people pleasing, how it disconnects us from our true selves and how to shift the pattern.

✨ Why external validation feels so addictive
✨ The emotional toll of people pleasing
✨ How to start giving yourself the approval you crave
✨ Simple practices to anchor your worth from within
