Please suggest me books about how to stop asking for outside validation from people as a woman
Any book about actual advise for women on gaining confidence and gaining confidence. I know it may be vague but I feel very lost and am in need of a good non preachy practical book
Thanks in advance
The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown and Self-compassion by Kristin Neff were both helpful to me.

For a practical book, “why men love bit***s” is absolutely eye opening and full of practical advice on why having self confidence and personal boundaries is so wonderful. It says that if you are bending over backwards to try to attract a man, you are absolutely doing it wrong and probably only attracting trashy people.
For help with your self confidence consider anything by Brene Brown
You might also consider any workbooks that help you to gain your sense of self or confidence. A book on shadow work might also be very helpful if you believe that you are worthless simply because someone in your life taught you this (and they were wrong).
