Approval Seeking: Breaking Free from the Need for Validation

Practicing this, it changes us, and we realize we don't need other people's approval as much as we think we do.

Jo puts it perfectly when she says, 'Practicing this, it changes us, and we realize we don't need other people's approval as much as we think we do'.
