Purpose Outside Applause

This week, Joe is joined by Valeria Vania as they dive into the real conversation behind validation, attention, and what it actually means to feel seen. From men not receiving enough compliments to women navigating constant attention, the two unpack how affirmation shows up differently—and why it matters more than we admit.They get into the love-hate relationship we all have with Instagram, the rush of likes, and the quiet question underneath it all: why do we crave attention in the first place? Is it confidence, insecurity, or something that started way earlier in life?With honest moments, a little self-reflection, and some real talk about how we were raised, this episode challenges whether we’re living for ourselves… or for the applause.
