The Positivity Xperience

Stop Letting People Define You: The Psychology of Identity, Expectation, and Self-Ownership.


Listen Later

Have you ever wondered who you'd be if you stopped trying to live up to everyone else's expectations?

In this episode of The Positivity Xperience, Lori Wheeler breaks down the psychology of identity — how childhood attachment, social pressure, and people-pleasing create a false self that keeps you disconnected from who you really are.

You'll learn:

• Why your brain links approval with safety (and how to retrain it) • The hidden cost of performing for acceptance • What it means to stop defining yourself through others' validation • How to reclaim your sense of self and live authentically

This episode blends neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and real-world coaching tools to help you stop performing for others and start living for yourself.

🔹 If you've ever said "I don't even know who I am anymore," this one's for you.
