In this episode of The Leadership Wound, we dive deep into the everyday ways external validation sneaks into our lives and leadership — and the steep price it makes us pay. From checking emails for quick replies, to scanning faces in meetings, to replaying conversations for reassurance, validation-seeking quietly drains our energy, distorts our decisions, and erodes our presence.We’ll look at the science behind why chasing “enough” never satisfies, explore the hidden toll it takes on our bodies and relationships, and share practical tools for beginning what I call a Validation Detox. With reflection questions, simple weekly practices, and a leadership reframe, you’ll learn how to retrain your nervous system, reclaim your boundaries, and begin stepping into authentic influence.This isn’t just about breaking a bad habit — it’s about finding freedom. Because the truth is, you don’t have to keep living for someone else’s reaction. There’s a different way to lead — one filled with more peace, clarity, and presence.📲 Grab free resources or book a coaching call at AuthenticLeadershipCollective.comResources & Links:Learn more at: AuthenticLeadershipCollective.comSchedule a Free 30-minute Growth Plan ConsultGet a Free Morning Meditation, and start your day off right, by signing up for my weekly leadership emailsFollow Amanda on InstagramConnect on FacebookSubscribe and leave a review to help others find the show!
