  • Summary

  • External validation isn’t a ‘bad’ thing, but is it keeping you attached to people pleasing behaviours? In this episode, I speak on the power of external validation and being affirmed by those around you, but also how being attached to people’s validations can be unhelpful, if you’re clinging onto what they say before understanding what you think and believe about something.

    Key takeaways from this episode:

    • External validation will always be based on someone else’s beliefs, views of the world and what they value.
    • Being attached to people’s validation may hinder you from evolving your opinions, ideas and creative practice
    • External validation gets to be cherry on top of the cake as opposed to a key part of the main ingredients.
    • Asking yourself what you value, think and believe about something before is an effective practice to detach from external validation
