Are You a Social Chameleon? Why Shape-Shifting and Self-Sacrifice Lead to Low Self-Worth, and How You Can Show Up Unapologetically as Your True Self

Introvert Attraction ~ Love, Dating, & Relationships

Here are the highlights of today's episode:
0:00 | Introduction
1:25 | Past relationship mistakes can bring the most growth in the future: Embracing your shadow allows you to move forward with self-acceptance rather than shame
3:10 | Only YOU can define your self-worth: Being dependent on other people’s validation leads to becoming a social chameleon, which means you are sacrificing parts of yourself in order to receive love
4:55 | Rejecting parts of yourself often comes from childhood: The parts of you that were minimized or frowned upon as a child are often the same parts that *you* reject and minimize in *yourself* as an adult
5:25 | Suppressing your true personality and identity leads to a loss of your own self-worth, which makes you vulnerable to rejection and being controlled by the decisions of other people
6:25 | The goal is to invest your efforts *internally* into your intuition, authenticity, and valuing who you are, and then allowing other people to make their own decisions about whether they’re attracted to you
9:05 | Investing your energy into micro-managing people’s decisions, perceptions, and behaviors ultimately leads to your own disempowerment (and further fuels the fear of rejection)
10:50 | Challenge: Assess where you are investing your energy, effort, and intentions:

• Are you seeking external validation?
• Are you suppressing your own uniqueness?
• Are you trying to act a certain way in order to be accepted or approved of?
• What are the areas (or people) you've noticed are draining your energy and power?

⬆️ Start to make some withdrawals from those areas, and invest that energy back into your own self and things you *can* control: Authentic self-expression, trusting your intuition, and showing up unapologetically.
12:05 | As a byproduct of investing your energy into yourself: You radiate confidence and self-assuredness, which are incredibly attractive!
12:55 | Allowing other people to make their own decisions based on whether they’re attracted to the REAL you means that your self-worth is not tied to their response, which makes you more resilient in the face of rejection
15:00 | Dating becomes more exciting when you no longer view rejection as a threat to your self-worth! This allows you to view life through the lens of opportunity, rather than moving through life trying to protect yourself from other people’s beliefs and perceptions about you
