Faith Salie of NPR’s Wait WaitaDon’t Tell Me! and CBS News Sunday Morning has done it all in the name of validation. Whether it’s trying to impress her parents with a perfect GPA, embarking on a spiritual retreat in the hopes of saving her toxic marriage, or maintaining the BMI of oa flapper with a touch of dysentery,o Salie is the ultimate approval seeker-an oapproval junkie,o if you will. With thoughtful irreverence, Salie reflects on why it is she tries so hard to please others, and especially herself, by highlighting a phenomenon that many people-especially women-experience at home and in the workplace. Equal parts laugh-out-loud funny and poignant, Approval Junkie is one woman’s journey to the realization that seeking approval from others is more than just getting them to like you-it’s challenging yourself to achieve, and survive, more than you ever thought you could.
