51 // Cyclical Business Episode: Looking For Approval

See this content in the original post

In this episode as part of the Cyclical Business Series, we explore the common barrier to creativity and business which is "looking for approval" from family or friends.

I explain to you exactly why it happens and how we can free ourselves from this pressure so we can finally focus on what it is you are here to create!

We discussed: 

  • Why saying "you don't need approval is not helpful

  • Understanding what is underneath "looking for approval"

  • What you might be looking for instead of approval

  • Why this happens to women

  • Why this happens in creativity

  • How to take care of our creative vulnerability

  • How to get clear on where to get important business needs met

Prompts for reflection: What are the things you are needing rather than approval? And where can you get those things met? What part of you is looking for approval? And what does that part need?
