About this episode

Tam Kaur discusses how to reconnect with your true self amidst societal pressures and personal fears.

feeling disconnected from yourself and tired of second-guessing everything you say, do, and want? in this video, i’m talking about how people-pleasing, fear of rejection, and old survival patterns can quietly pull you away from who you really are, until you barely recognize your own voice. we’re getting into why authenticity can feel so hard, how social media, relationships, and the need to be liked can shape a version of you that feels safe but not fully true, and what it actually looks like to come back to yourself with more honesty, self-trust, and confidence. ♡ WHAT'S IN THIS VIDEO: 02:34 Chapter 1: Why You Lost Yourself in the First Place (The Diagnosis Before the Cure) 08:18 Chapter 2: What Authenticity Actually Means (It's Not What You Think) 15:06 Chapter 3: Homework and Actionable Steps 🛍️ SHOP & LINKS: Shop my Abbott Lyon Collection use my exclusive code TAM2FOR1 buy one get one FREE sitewide!
