Although we can all agree it feels good to receive praise and recognition from others, it can also lead to a constant need for approval and a lack of self-confidence.

One of the downfalls to sharing your personal life on social media is that we open ourselves up to receiving constant attention and judgement. And it can be really difficult putting yourself in the spotlight.

In part two of “Embracing Change: Re-inventing Ourselves,” Liv opens up and shares some deep feelings about what it’s like to share parts of yourself on the internet while transitioning through different phases in your life and career.

Listen in on the conversation between Liv and Alex as they chat about external validation, learning to live for yourself, not others and embracing unexpected changes. Life is never what we expect it to be.
