Show Notes

Are you constantly seeking likes, praise, or approval to feel worthy?
Do you struggle to feel “enough” without outside affirmation?

You’re not alone—and you’re not broken.
In this powerful solo episode, we dive deep into how the cycle of external validation begins, why it’s so hard to break, and how to return to the only source of worth that truly matters—yourself.

Tune in as I unpack:

✔️ The psychology behind validation-seeking
✔️ Signs you may be stuck in the cycle
✔️ Reflective journal prompts
✔️ Somatic practices for grounding
✔️ Affirmations to reclaim your self-worth
