What Is People Pleasing and How to Stop Doing It - EP53

KliP4ryc4lnn1ITprM54

Is people pleasing killing your confidence? Does your self-esteem suffer because you say yes when you really want to say no?

Do you seek approval from others by doing more than your share or fear rejection if you don't do what others want you to do?

Hello! I'm Heather and I am a recovering people pleaser. This means I still work on NOT people pleasing. I have learned how to spot it when I am people pleasing rather than taking care of me. I notice when I am resentful or overwhelmed but it is due to my choices. I now know what questions I can ask myself to figure out if what I am doing or saying yes to is in alignment with my self-care. 

When we neglect ourselves and take care of others eventually you lose and the other person loses to. How can you balance the yes's and the no's so you can be happy, joyful, and still nurture your relationships?

Don't skip this one, it's gonna be a good one!

People pleasers aren't bad people. If you are a people pleaser, you are just doing what you think you should be doing. There are ways you can balance YOU and your self-care with the needs of people around you. 

The first step is knowing when you are people pleasing verses when you are simply choosing to do something with or for someone out of the goodness of your heart. When you do it to seek approval or out of fear of not being liked at the expense of your own needs being met, you can create resentment, feeling disconnected, and unneeded stress on your relationship.

Do you want to know how to find that balance and stop people pleasing as much? 

Great, I want to help you figure out all the ways that you are people pleasing, create boundaries so you can stop, and strategies for how to handle people pleasing when you catch yourself in the act! 

Grab a pen and paper for this one! You are going to want to write down all the details!

Imagine having deeper connections, feeling less anxiety and overwhelm, gaining clarity, and fully trusting yourself.

Picture yourself not just surviving, but truly thriving.
