      I've heard the expression "living vicariously through another", but I don't think that's what you mean.

        living vicariously through someone else simply means living through someone else.
        example, a mother always wanted to become a singer but never had the voice for it, her daughter on the other hand has a great voice. The mother encourages the daughter to pursue a singing career (although the daughter hates singing) in order to live her life's dream through her daughter
        I guess living vicariously through oneself means living your ideal life internally while externally you conform to society's reality for your life........
