Always Needing Approval? Simple Keys to Soul Progress Series: #28 with Dr. Judith

Welcome to today’s episode, where we dive into one of the most sought-after human desires—approval. We crave, yearn for it, and often chase it in all the wrong places. But is it genuinely fulfilling, or are we just endlessly searching for a drink that never quite quenches our thirst?

As Dr. Judith shares her powerful perspective on approval, we’ll explore why it can sometimes feel like a bottomless pit and how the constant craving can prevent us from finding proper peace. Could the approval we seek be rooted in a more profound need for something more authentic? Dr. Judith reveals the profound truth behind what we’re after and where to find the only approval that truly satisfies.

“What does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul?” —Mark 8:36

This timeless scripture reminds us of the fleeting nature of external validation while encouraging us to seek something more enduring that nourishes the soul.

Here’s a story to consider: Do you find yourself trying to impress people who barely know you, constantly seeking their validation? The approval you receive might feel good at first, but it’s often short-lived, leaving you feeling emptier than before. True fulfillment doesn’t come from external approval but from looking inward and focusing on your own growth and authenticity.

Are we looking for approval in the wrong places? Join Dr. Judith as she helps us understand how to find the actual approval that accelerates our growth.
