What if being liked by everyone isn't all it's cracked up to be? Join us for a transformative discussion with Teru Nakashima, an HSP counselor and authority on Adlerian psychology, as we turn the spotlight on the liberating idea of embracing your true self without universal approval. Discover Nakashima's eye-opening 2.6.2 rule, which challenges the exhausting and futile pursuit of people-pleasing. With practical wisdom for focusing on connections that genuinely matter, this episode invites you to let go of the need for everyone's affirmation and lean into the vibrant authenticity that defines who you are.
Explore the metaphor of staying true to your "color," representing your unique personality and values, and learn why attempting to dull your individuality can leave you feeling bland and unfulfilled. Just like cultural icons such as Madonna, whose bold authenticity shines despite criticism, Nakashima encourages us to notice when we're holding back and to embrace our full spectrum. With actionable insights, we guide you on a journey to cultivate self-esteem and live boldly, even when not everyone is on board with your authentic self. Tune in for an empowering conversation that champions being unapologetically you.
