214 How To Stop People-Pleasing When Saying Yes Is Making You Sick

Show Notes

In this empowering episode of the Hello Hot Flash Podcast, I talk with Karen Viesta, a certified health and lifestyle coach who helps women over 40 master their health, energy, and boundaries. Together, they explore how people-pleasing behaviors and poor boundaries silently erode your well-being—and what to do about it.

Karen shares why boundaries are not about control, but about self-respect and emotional protection—and how to communicate them clearly so they strengthen, rather than harm, your relationships.

What You’ll Learn:

1. Why people pleasing is often rooted in early conditioning—and how to start breaking free.
   
   
2. The key resources boundaries are meant to protect: your time, money, energy, and emotional health.
   
   
3. How to communicate boundaries and consequences without guilt, shame, or fear of rejection.
