My audience only loved episodes where I spoke solo, but I kept hiding behind interviews, begging for validation from people who didn't value me. If you're creating content just to be seen, constantly seeking approval, and attracting clients who don't align with your vision , this raw episode is for you. I reveal why you're struggling with conversions, why your content feels generic, and the three powerful shifts that helped me stop people-pleasing and start owning my authority. You don't need permission to be yourself. Stop waiting for validation and start being the one your dream clients need. #selfworth #entrepreneurmindset #validationmatters [0:00 - 0:45] Hook - Hiding behind 30 podcast collaborations[0:45 - 1:47] Why seeking validation destroys authentic content[1:47 - 2:35] Introduction and episode theme[2:35 - 3:35] Corporate trauma patterns and proving yourself to others[3:35 - 4:33] Being the one vs. seeking external approval[4:33 - 5:26] How people project their fears onto you[5:26 - 6:17] Procrastination as self-sabotage[6:17 - 7:13] The power of being misunderstood[7:13 - 8:11] Personal story: 30 podcast interviews seeking validation[8:11 - 9:10] Audience only loved solo episodes (lesson learned)[9:10 - 10:07] Results: 30K listeners worldwide by being authentic[10:07 - 11:00] Needing to humble yourself vs. claiming "I am the one"[11:00 - 12:00] Creating generic content from lack of confidence[12:00 - 13:13] Mimicking competitors instead of owning your story[13:13 - 14:12] Q4 opportunity to transform your business[14:12 - 15:08] Signs you're seeking validation in corporate life[15:08 - 16:19] Being the perfect colleague/people-pleaser cycle[16:19 - 17:14] Step 1: Recognize your trauma patterns[17:14 - 18:20] Step 2: Destroy perfectionism expectations[18:20 - 20:26] Comparing yourself to people ahead vs. one step above[20:26 - 21:03] People are watching even when not engaging[21:03 - 22:42] Step 3: Detach from end results, celebrate small wins[22:42 - 23:52] Your value isn't determined by likes or views[23:52 - end] Conclusion: You are worthy exactly as you are
