When “Being Chosen” Is Your Drug (and How to Detox)

from I'm Jess Sayin · host Jess

Let’s be real—you’re not chasing love, you’re chasing the feeling of being picked. The attention, the validation, the high. But what happens when that hit wears off? In this episode, we’re getting honest about what “being chosen” addiction really looks like, the childhood patterns that feed it, and how to finally detox from the chase. I’m walking you through how to separate fantasy from real connection, how to stop settling for inconsistency, and what it actually takes to build a life that still stands when the relationship ends.This one’s not about blaming yourself—it’s about understanding yourself. You’ll learn how to spot your triggers, protect your peace, and start showing up as the version of you that doesn’t need to be chosen to feel worthy.Follow the show, join The Clarity Club, and start choosing yourself on purpose.Clarity Club: https://stan.store/ClarityandCompany/p/join-the-5050-club-waitlist
