The Practice of Being Human

The Freedom of Choosing Yourself


Listen Later

In this episode, Marta explores the difference between seeking validation from others and learning to trust and choose yourself.

Inspired by a conversation with a young man navigating relationship challenges and recurring patterns, she reflects on the ways life continually reveals where we have yet to trust ourselves, tell the truth, and live in alignment with what we know deep down.

This episode focuses on self-trust, emotional growth, authenticity, and the patterns that keep showing up throughout our lives. It explores why we often organize our lives around being chosen, how fear of rejection shapes our decisions, and what becomes possible when we begin choosing ourselves instead.

This is a thoughtful and compassionate conversation about relationships, belonging, people-pleasing, self-worth, and the courage to live more honestly. A reminder that the lesson keeps returning not because we are failing, but because we are becoming—and that every challenge has the potential to lead us back home to ourselves.
