Welcome to More Will Be Revealed! In this very first episode I share a little about who I am and why I’m passionate about sharing my story with you. I introduce some of the topics I’ll be talking about in the coming episodes, and begin the journey by sharing why seeking external validation had a detrimental impact on my sense of self-esteem.

Episode breakdown:

• I’ve created this podcast to share my story: the highs, the lows, the impactful realisations I’ve had, and most importantly, the tools which have led me to where I am today.
• I am not a coach, guru, therapist or psychologist, just one person sharing her unique truth.
• There will never be ads on this podcast and I’m not selling anything.
• Take what you like from the podcast, and leave the rest!

// Seeking external validation //

• Growing up I was more focused on fitting in than discovering my likes and dislikes.
• I sought validation by achieving high grades and trying to obtain a thin, “Aussie beach girl” appearance.
• Deep down I felt unworthy, and believed I needed to prove something to the outside world.
• For years my own behaviour reinforced my core belief that I wasn’t good enough as I was. I eventually had a crisis in self-esteem when I was 22 years old.
• My pain brought me into 12 Step recovery. This was the beginning of my healing and self-discovery journey.
