Listen "How to Stop People Pleasing (Without Feeling Like a Bad Person)"
Episode Synopsis
If you’ve ever found yourself saying “yes” when you really wanted to say “no”…
If you’re constantly trying to keep everyone happy, even at the expense of yourself…
This episode is for you.
In this episode, we’re breaking down what people-pleasing really is (spoiler: it’s not kindness, it’s fear). I explain why people-pleasing makes it so hard to say no, how it disconnects us from our truth, and how it’s actually a subtle form of trying to control other people’s emotions and opinions.
We’ll talk about where people-pleasing comes from, why it feels so hard to stop, and why letting it go is one of the most loving things you can do, not just for yourself, but for your relationships too.
You’ll learn how releasing the need to please helps you build deeper connection, more honesty, and way more self-trust. This episode is your permission slip to stop shrinking and start showing up as who you really are.
