112: Why Do I Seek Parental Validation as an Adult?

In this episode, I answer a question from a listener who is wondering why they still seek validation from their parents even though they already know their parents are unsupportive and are often left feeling unhappy. I discuss how so often our need for parental validation and approval is tied to deep rooted human fears, including the fear of rejection, the fear of abandonment, the fear of criticism, and the fear of being unlovable. My intention is to help you to feel less alone, validated in your experience, and offer you ways to begin healing from these fears and how we can begin to validate and love ourselves, one step at a time.Timestamps ⏱️Introduction: 0:15Listener Question: 1:45Outro: 35:28For episode show notes, please visit: https://www.newviewadvice.com/112For more free resources and to learn more about New View Advice, visit: https://www.newviewadvice.com/Want to have a question answered?
