We’re back, baby! A new year means new opportunities and another chance to create real change. In today’s episode, I breakdown the causes and differences behind the patterns of validation-seeking, approval-seeking, and people-pleasing behaviors. I talk about how these habits lead to chasing relationships, prioritizing others’ needs over your own, and losing touch your true self. It’s time to let go of the need to control, stop forcing relationships, and quit trying to prove your worth to others. To wrap it all up, I answer an audience question about dating someone who finds out their ex is pregnant—yeah, it gets interesting.
