Do you ever feel pressured to behave a certain way because your family, friends, or society expect it from you? Most of us want to be liked, but by trying to please everyone, we end up pleasing no one—ourselves included. That’s why most people don’t live the life they want. But how do you stay true to yourself if your best friends and your family shame you publicly?
How do you stick to your choices under overwhelming pressure to change and adapt to others’ opinions? In this episode of Women of Impact, Lisa Bilyeu is joined by the YouTube phenomenon Haifa Beseisso to discuss such matters and more as they explore how Haifa went from getting rejected to traveling around the world by succeeding on YouTube. How to keep going even if your closest friends judge your choices. Why awareness is the key to change, and what needs to change to give everyone the freedom to make their own choices. They discuss how to stay emphatic to people that try to tear you down, and what to do if you feel like other people don’t understand you, and much more.
