Why do we care so much about what other people think?

In this episode of A Really Good Cry, we’re having an honest chat about that constant need for approval and why it's so exhausting! I’m diving into my own journey of always worrying about others’ opinions and how I finally learned to let that go (well, mostly… still working on it!). We’ll talk about the moments when I felt like a total stranger in my own life because I was living for everyone else instead of just being myself.

We’ll get into the nitty-gritty of why we feel this way, how to start letting go, and what it actually means to show up as the most authentic version of you. And yes, I’ll be sharing some practical tips and little exercises that have helped me stop overthinking and just be ME.

So, if you’re ready to have a heart-to-heart about living life on your own terms, grab a cup of tea, get cozy, and let’s figure this out together. You deserve to be loved for who you really are, and this episode is all about helping you see that!



What We Discuss:
00:00 Intro
00:40 Let’s start with an affirmation
01:23 Are you living in your own life?
03:47 Embracing how we’re always changing
05:22 Focus on being in the present
06:21 The danger of losing yourself to fit in
09:28 Approval addiction
09:40 Signs that you care too much about what others think
13:58 Ask yourself this when you start worrying about what others think
17:13 The real reason we’re obsessed with being liked
20:00 Get to know yourself
22:03 Identify your purpose and value in life
23:30 Setting boundaries
24:49 Practice perspective
25:45 Sit in that discomfort of not being liked
26:36 Finding freedom in being yourself

Periods can be a pain—literally—but what if we could turn that pain into power?

On this episode of A Really Good Cry, we’re getting cozy and chatting about something we don’t talk about enough—our periods!

I’ll also be dropping some Ayurvedic gems on balancing hormones and soothing cramps, plus a few of my favorite self-care rituals (like the magical ovary massage) that’ll leave you feeling supported and nourished.

Whether you experience irregular cycles, or painful periods, or just want to deepen your connection with your body, this episode is filled with loving guidance, practical tips, and a whole lot of compassion for your amazing female body. I promise you’ll walk away seeing your period in a whole new light!
