"You are not responsible for everyone else's interpretation of your existence."
Why does someone's silence feel like rejection? Why can a few words make you question your worth? Sometimes, the pain isn't just about what happened; it's about what you've learned to believe about yourself.
In this episode of SoulTalk, Kute explores why we take things personally and how old wounds can keep us trapped in the need to be loved, understood, and approved of.
He invites you to stop carrying what isn't yours and recognize that other people's reactions do not define your worth.
You can care deeply about others without losing yourself in what they think of you. That's where freedom begins.
