✨ Wanting approval, validation, or to fit in is natural… but it can quietly drain your power. 💛
The fix? Give yourself the acceptance and approval you’re looking for from others. Start trusting your worth from the inside out — not from likes, compliments, or approval.
1. Make one decision a day without explaining it
Notice how often you justify your choices to feel “allowed” — even small ones.
Practice:
Once a day, make a decision and don’t explain it to anyone.
No defending. No over-justifying. No checking.
Examples:
💕Saying no without a backstory
💕Choosing rest without earning it
💕Posting something without asking, “Is this okay?”
Why it works:
Approval-seeking lives in explanation. Self-approval grows in quiet certainty.
2. Ask yourself before you ask someone else
Most people go straight to others for reassurance without realising it.
Practice:
Before asking for validation, pause and ask yourself:
“If no one else weighed in… what would I choose?”
Then:
Write the answer down
💕Sit with it for 60 seconds
💕Let that be the first opinion that matters
Why it works:
You’re training your nervous system to trust your inner authority again.
3. End your day with self-acknowledgement (not self-improvement)
High achievers often only approve of themselves after doing more.
Practice:
Each evening, name 3 things you can approve of today that are not about productivity.
Examples:
💕“I respected my limits.”
💕“I spoke honestly.”
💕“I didn’t abandon myself in that moment.”
💕Place your hand on your chest as you say them (yes, really).
Why it works:
Your system learns: I’m allowed to exist without proving my worth.
