We’ve all been there—saying yes when we meant no, laughing at jokes that weren’t funny, or carrying the invisible load at work and home just to keep the peace. But here’s the truth: being liked isn’t the same as being respected. And often, people-pleasing leads to burnout, resentment, and self-betrayal.In this episode, we unpack why so many of us—especially women—are conditioned to chase approval, and how it costs us authenticity, energy, and joy. We share real-life stories, coaching insights, and practical tools to help you step out of the people-pleasing trap and into a life aligned with your values.Highlights:Why people-pleasing starts in childhood and how it shows up in adulthoodThe difference between being liked and being respected (and why the latter matters more)How boundaries, self-love, and self-acceptance fuel authentic livingTools you can use today: the Boundary Reframe, Likability Audit, Micro Steps, and Self-Coaching QuestionsCoaching stories from clients, leadership, and everyday life that show the power of daring to be dislikedIf you’ve ever felt guilty for saying no, swallowed your opinion to avoid conflict, or betrayed your own needs to be liked—this conversation is for you.
