FRAMEWORK
Approval Framework
A lens that can make approval feel central to safety, belonging, or choice.
THE PREMISE
Other people’s approval can become important information about whether I am okay, accepted, or making the right choice.
WHAT IT CAN LOOK LIKE
You may notice yourself checking reactions, looking for reassurance, softening what you really think, or reconsidering a choice when someone else does not respond the way you hoped.
WHERE FRICTION CAN DEVELOP
Outside feedback can begin carrying more authority than your own internal information.
AN OPPORTUNITY TO NOTICE
Notice when you are gathering feedback — and when you are asking someone else to decide what you are allowed to trust about yourself.
REFLECTION
What would I choose here if I did not need anyone else to approve of the choice?

YOUR FRAMEWORKS MAY CHANGE BY CONTEXT
You may operate through one framework in your relationships and a very different one with work, finances, family, health, or yourself. The Framework Assessments are an opportunity to see what may be especially active in a specific area of your life right now.
