Ep. 195 - Dr. Thema Bryant on Coming Home to Your Authentic Self
EXPANDED Podcast by To Be Magnetic™
How Do I Show Up to Get People's Approval When That Is Not Me?
We have to heal our people pleasing and approval seeking. We can't have a real friendship if one of us has to pretend. It's so scary to be seen for who we truly are knowing that it might not be what someone else wants. And even if you're able to keep it up for a long time, the resentment grows because you're doing a lot of emotional labor to silence yourself. The performance is not sustainable.
Do you keep yourself busy in order to avoid what needs healing? On today’s episode of Expanded, Dr. Thema Bryant covers this type of avoidance, the connection between self-abandonment & authenticity, how to find community as an adult, easy ways to calm your nervous system, and what it means when boredom strikes.
Dr. Thema & Jessica also talk about reprogramming work, avoiding people-pleasing, finding your joy, and they share steps for reparenting yourself.
This ep is PACKED with inspirational and actionable takeaways. Can’t wait for you to hear!
