Stop the Filtering: Trade External Validation for Internal Velocity 

Do you worry about how you "land" in every room? In this episode of Living Lucky®, Jason and Jana Banana expose how approval-hunting hijacks your energy and calendar. Learn to shift from the exhaustion of people-pleasing to internal velocity—the grounded momentum of living by your own standards.

We dive into "the chameleon gift" and the hidden tax paid when you forget your own preferences to keep the peace. Stop filtering your truth and start reclaiming your agency.

In this episode:

• Escape the Approval Trap: See how managing others' reactions weakens your personal power.
• Master Micro-Declarations: Use small, honest choices to rebuild your authenticity.
• Kill Post-Event Rumination: Silence the "internal bully" that second-guesses your social interactions.

• Empathy Without Baggage: You can care for people without inheriting their emotional heavy lifting. (Believe in your circumstances).
