69: Clap for Yourself: The Power of Self-Validation + Self-Worth

In this episode, Lindsey dives deep into the power of self-validation and the sometimes surprising reality that support doesn’t always come from those closest to you. Drawing from her own experiences, Lindsey unpacks the complexities of friendship dynamics, jealousy, and the importance of self-celebration.

She offers empowering insights on how to recognize your worth, celebrate your wins (big and small), and understand that true support often comes from unexpected places. This episode will inspire you to honor your growth, stand tall in your self-worth, and remember that you’re worthy of celebration—whether others acknowledge it or not.
