About this listen
In this episode of The Stillhouse Reflections, Della explores how the need for approval quietly shapes our choices and limits our freedom. She unpacks why we seek validation from others and how this instinct, often rooted in fear or belonging, becomes an invisible leash that keeps us small.
Using the example of skydiving, Della shows how other people’s fear can masquerade as wisdom—and how recognizing that projection allows us to move forward anyway. When we stop mistaking approval for truth, we begin to reclaim the power to choose our own direction.
