Validation: The power of personal validation as an ongoing practice: with Julie & Willow
from The Sensitive and Neurodivergent Podcast with Julie Bjelland , LMFT · host Julie Bjelland, LMFT
Following a previous episode about self-compassion, the powerful technique for managing our feelings, we turn our attention to the power of validation. As high sensory people, we can often get overly affected by other people's opinions and expectations of us. So much so we can even lose track of a sense of meaning in our lives and the very reason nature has given us this powerful trait. We’ll discuss tools and techniques to stay connected to our own sense of self, our purpose, and ultimately our own happiness and fulfillment. Join us as we will dive into key areas such as: What does validation really mean from a personal development point of view What are the signs to look out for when we have lost our sense of self The adverse effects of ‘people-pleasing’ on the relationship with ourselves and how to manage this The importance of differentiating personal validation from being self centered and how it ultimately leads to being of better service to others Understanding why self-validation is the path to bringing our high sensory gifts into the world Reflecting on the importance of self-validation in leadership How to bring self-validation into our lives as a daily practice More information at www.hsppodcast.com
