Friend-

It is Time for you to Break Free from the Need for Validation & Rewire Your Auto- Emotional Reactions

But guess what? I've got you.

🚨 Your Thought Block Overview:

• “The Need for Validation” –
  •  You might be the one who asks, “Does this outfit look okay?” before leaving the house—when deep down, you already know you look amazing.
  • The approval-seeker saboteur convinces you that others need to greenlight your decisions.
  • The truth? You’re your own best judge. Life isn’t a group project—you don’t need everyone’s approval to ace it.
  • You often hesitate to act until you know others will be on board.
  • The approval-seeker saboteur convinces you that you need external validation to feel secure, making you rely on others’ opinions to feel worthy.
  • But here’s the truth: constantly seeking approval is exhausting and keeps you from trusting your own voice.
  • Because: You don’t need others’ approval to know you’re on the right track—you’re your own best judge of what you want, like, and need. It's time to start feeling secure. In you.

💡 A-Ha Insight:

What if your opinion was the only one that mattered?

• You’ve spent years chasing the elusive approval of others, trying to figure out if you’re doing enough.

• But, you already know the answer for you. You’ve been enough all along, but the approval-seeking saboteur keeps convincing you otherwise. It's a real pest.

• True freedom comes when you stop looking outside for validation and start prioritizing your own desires and choices.
• This mind shift builds confidence and helps you trust your inner authority.
• And there are step-by-step solutions so you can master this. Simply. And quickly.

What if your voice was the only one you needed to hear?

🤨 Did You Know?

• Fun fact—research shows that self-validation can be more fulfilling than external validation!

•  Start looking for small ways to validate yourself daily, and notice how much better it feels to taste that freedom.

• Studies show that the brain’s reward system lights up when we receive praise or validation. It’s no wonder we crave approval. It's actually very normal for us. BUT long-term fulfillment comes only from internal validation.

• Psychology Insight: The need for approval is tied to our evolutionary need for belonging—back in the day, being part of the group meant survival. Who would want to get kicked out of the tribe? Nope. It's not a defect. It's just science!

🐾 Action Plan:

Next time you find yourself seeking validation, try this:

• Make one decision without asking anyone for their input.
  • Whether it’s a personal or professional choice, recognize that your opinion matters most.
  • Start trusting your instincts and watch how your confidence grows and how much better you can feel.
• This or That:
  • Instead of asking for someone’s approval, give yourself a compliment or affirmation.
  • Practice saying, “I trust in myself. I trust my own opinion. Only I know what I like. What I want. What I need. And I don't need anyone to cosign what I want. My opinion is enough.” 
    • Yeah... you're a total badass.
• Internal Validation Practice: 
  • At the end of each day, write down three things you accomplished without seeking anyone’s approval.
  • Reflect on how it felt to trust your own judgment.
  • It will take some time to build evidence in your own self-trust. You've not yet created much. But you have to get that file started now. It will build up fast! You'll be so surprised!
 
• Self-Trust Challenge:
  • For one week, commit to making one decision each day without asking for anyone’s input.
  • It could be something as small as choosing a restaurant or picking an outfit.
    • Catch yourself when you inner critic saboteur starts to say "but what about..." and interrupt that nonsense. Quick. You are good. You got this. 
  • Watch how this builds your confidence but also notice when you are uncomfortable or resisting. Your saboteur won't like it. That's all that discomfort means.
  • Thank those pesky thoughts for watching out for you, trying to keep you included in the community, and remind that frustrating friend we no longer live in primitive times.
    • Then just keep practicing.
    • It gets so much easier! It did for me. 

🤓 Pro-Tip: Set a “No Asking Zone” for yourself

• Pick a day where you make all decisions without seeking input from anyone else.

• The more you practice, the easier it becomes to trust yourself!

🌟 Try on a New Thought:

“I’m prioritizing my own voice today over the need for external validation and my loud saboteur who won't like it. I got this. My opinion is enough and other people's is just that: Opinion. I can decide for myself what I want and what I think is best for me”
