About this listen

Are you constantly worried about what others think of you? Do you find yourself over-explaining, people-pleasing, or censoring your truth just to be accepted?

In this powerful episode, we uncover the science and psychology behind the deep human need for external validation — and why chasing approval is slowly draining your confidence, clarity, and peace.

Let's Break Down:

*Why your brain craves acceptance (hint: it's wired into your survival system)

*How childhood conditioning trains you to abandon yourself to be liked

*The connection between people-pleasing, fawning, and nervous system dysregulation

*Why rejection feels like danger (even when it’s not)

*The high cost of living for approval — and how to stop

This episode is for anyone who feels trapped in the loop of proving, performing, and perfecting just to feel “enough.”

I'll give you the insight — and the tools — to stop living for applause and start living in alignment with who you truly are.

🧠 It’s time to stop outsourcing your worth. This is the emotional clarity you’ve been craving.
