Who Are You When You Stop Trying to Be Liked? | Carl Jung

Who are you when you stop trying to be liked? If you often change what you say, hide what you feel, or agree just to keep someone’s approval, that question can be hard to answer. In this video, we explore Carl Jung’s idea of the persona: the social identity we develop to meet the world. We’ll look at how the need to be accepted can shape your choices and make it difficult to recognize what you actually want. Letting go of constant approval seeking can begin with small, honest moments: noticing when you perform, allowing a disagreement, and asking yourself what you would choose if nobody were watching. When do you feel most free to be yourself? Share your thoughts in the comments. #CarlJung #PeoplePleasing #SelfAwareness #Authenticity #JungianPsychology
