Listen "EP 224 Outside Validation: A Confidence Boost or a Confidence Trap?"
Episode Synopsis
Seeking outside validation is a natural human tendency. We look to parents, teachers, and peers from childhood for approval and reassurance. As we grow, external validation continues to shape our confidence, decisions, and sense of belonging.Validation can serve as a source of encouragement, offering us motivation and constructive feedback. It can help us refine our skills, build meaningful relationships, and navigate social and professional settings. However, we risk losing our autonomy and self-trust when we become overly dependent on it. Constantly seeking approval from others can lead to self-doubt, emotional instability, and an inability to make decisions without external reassurance.In this episode, we will explore the benefits and drawbacks of outside validation and strategies for cultivating a healthy balance between external feedback and internal self-assurance.
