Episode 141: What are you trying to do?

Today we dive into the concept of constantly questioning one's safety and worthiness, which can lead to emotional baggage and materialistic pursuits in an attempt to fulfill these needs artificially. We explore how societal pressures and cultural norms play a significant role in exacerbating anxiety and stress, particularly evident in wedding planning, where there is a heightened focus on appearances, expectations, and external validation. I offer practical advice and a reflective framework to guide you towards a more authentic and fulfilling wedding planning journey rooted in self-awareness and intentionality.
