The Curiosity Code: Breaking the Approval Habit and Leading With Curiosity - with Craig Harper

Episode Description:
Are you living your life… or managing everyone else’s reactions to it?

In this episode, we dig into what happens when your self-worth gets tangled in the opinions of others. From the exhausting pursuit of universal approval, to the sneaky trap of meta-perception; how we think others see us. We explore how this mental noise hijacks our happiness, relationships, and performance.

We’ll unpack the difference between being affected by and defined by other people’s views, how emotional intelligence requires the guts to hear hard truths, and why the ability to celebrate someone else's success says more about you than you think.

Also in this episode:

• What friendships are actually worth keeping (and why that's not selfish).
• The one thing you should never do if you want to help someone change.
• The science-backed factor that explains 70% of workplace performance variation, and what it has to do with how you talk to people.
• And why curiosity is more than a mindset, it's the antidote to the toxic oversimplifications of “sound-byte thinking.”

Let’s explore what it means to guide rather than push, ask rather than assume, and build relationships that don’t just perform, but transform.
