The idea of seeking validation from people has been criticized as unconventional; addressing the issue, media personality, Shade Ladipo took to her Instagram story to expatiate more.
According to Ladipo, when one seeks validation from others, self-worth, peace, and other important aspects of life become dependent on people’s opinions.
She wrote: If your validation must come from others, so too will your self-worth. If your peace resides in someone else, so too will your suffering. You get to decide what matters to you and what it means to live well and on purpose!
