Ep 32 Why we look to others for validation

Like many of the female leaders I work with, I have often found myself seeking reassurance, feedback and validation from others in order to feel like I am enough.  This is something I’ve been making a lot of progress with over the last few years and I see it come up again and again in the group coaching calls within my programme so I thought it would make a good episode for the podcast.  It seems that the isolation of working from home has really exacerbated this issue for many people as well. 

 

In this episode of the Influence & Impact podcast I’ll be talking about where that need for validation comes from, how it is holding us back and the first steps you can take to stop giving your power away to other people and start getting your validation from yourself rather than others.

You can now sign up for my FREE masterclass How To Be An Influential Leader without letting self-doubt hold you back (link is https://carlamiller.lpages.co/how-to-be-an-influentialleader).  It is available until 7 February 2021 so be sure to watch it whilst you can.
