The Tattoed Truth with Anna Love

02 - Living for Approval vs. Living in Alignment

Anna Love Season 2 Episode 2

What if the life you’ve built isn’t actually the life you want?

In this raw and unfiltered conversation, I share my own self-discovery journey and how my 30s cracked me open, from chasing success on autopilot to facing burnout recovery head-on. We talk about the masks we wear to fit in, the roles we never truly chose, and why breaking free from people pleasing was the first step toward living in alignment.

You’ll hear the real story behind my hustle for love, acceptance, and value… and the moment I began asking the questions that changed everything. These 30s life lessons go beyond career or relationships. They’re about healing from burnout, reclaiming your true self, and awakening to the life you actually want.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, worn down, or disconnected from who you really are, this episode will give you the clarity and courage to choose yourself.
