006 - Do you have OPO (Other Peoples' Op...

Najwa Zebian & Stephan Maighan
About this episode

In today's conversation, we talk about the importance of operating from a place of not needing everyone to be okay with you to be okay with yourself. Especially if you're a people pleaser, you probably struggle with OPO syndrome (Other Peoples' Opinions). When we look at this from a self-leadership angle, it becomes clear that allowing others' opinions to dictate what you do or how you do it is a matter of allowing them to lead your life. Is that how you want to live your life?

Do you deal with people in your life guilting you into behaving or being a certain way? Do you find yourself having to dim your light so others in your life could feel less uncomfortable or better about themselves? Who is leading your life? And most importantly, do you want to be the leader of your life?

This episode will help bring you clarity on the power you have to lead your life from a place of authenticity and integrity. 

In The Clear, with Dr. Najwa Zebian and Stephan Maighan. Helping you gain clarity on all aspects of your life using a balanced approach that employs both logic and emotion.
