Listen "5. Why people pleasing actually makes total sense"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s solo episode I’m breaking down why your people pleasing tendencies actually make perfect sense.
People pleasing can come with a lot of shame and I hope today’s episode shows you that it’s not your fault that people pleasing became your coping strategy – it’s actually very understandable.
I also discussed:
How our fight or flight response shows up in social situations
Beliefs that are getting in the way of you stopping you from overcoming people pleasing
Why you don’t always have to be growing or healing
How to actually apply what you learn in podcasts
Why our brains tend to seek out safety and comfort
The importance of tolerating distress when changing people pleasing tendencies
Journal prompts from today’s episode:
Where do I tend to people please to avoid an uncomfortable feeling?
Given what I’ve learnt, how can I be more compassionate to myself when I am people pleasing?
