About this listen
We’ve all been there — shrinking ourselves so people will like us, doubting our art because of opinions, or making decisions based on how we’ll be perceived. But what happens when we finally decide…
💥 “I’d rather you dislike me for being myself than love me for being someone else.”
We discuss:
• people-pleasing
• releasing outside validation
• creative confidence
• setting boundaries
• choosing YOU
If you're an artist, a creative, or someone who’s tired of worrying about what others think — this episode is for you.
