About this listen

 Why do we care so much about what other people think? In this candid and thought-provoking conversation, Chris Do and Jodie Cook unpack the roots of identity, judgment, and self-worth. From school systems that condition conformity, to the subtle ways parents shape our sense of pride and achievement, Chris and Jodie explore how external validation can quietly dictate our happiness. They discuss the difference between praise and gratitude, the trap of living for weekends, and how to cultivate the courage to stand in your own truth—unapologetically.
