In this episode, you are going to learn how to put yourself first.
Which means you and I are having a conversation about people-pleasing.
You know you do it. I do it, too.
In fact, unless you're a narcissistic jerk (and you’re not if you’re listening to these podcast episodes), we are all people-pleasers to some extent.
Being a people-pleaser is a coping mechanism and it is destroying your energy, your time, your dreams, and your sanity.
Every time you say yes to something you don’t really want to do, you’re saying no to yourself.
Today, we’re changing that in a surprising way.
First, you’ll become aware of when and why you do it.
Second, you’ll learn the science-backed tools you need to break the habit of always putting other people’s needs before your own.
Third, you and I are going to have a talk about guilt, because when you start saying no, one thing I can guarantee is that you’ll feel guilty about it.
I used to, too. I don’t anymore. And I’ll explain how you can handle the guilt and still put yourself first. One of the critical steps to creating a life you love is learning how to say yes to what matters to you and no to what doesn’t.
This is a big topic; there are a lot of surprising layers.
So I can’t wait for you to apply these relatable and easy strategies to your life and to hear about your breakthroughs.
