Are you the person everyone counts on the helper, the over-preparer, the one who simply can't say no? In this deeply honest episode, certified life coach Heather Edwards opens up about her own journey as a recovering people pleaser and breaks down why this pattern is so hard to spot because it hides behind kindness, reliability, and good intentions.
The definition of people pleasing: prioritizing others' approval over your own needs, boundaries, and truth even at a cost to yourself. Are you people pleasing and not even aware of it?
In this episode you'll learn to recognize the sneaky red flags, from over-preparing as a performance to automatic yeses driven by anxiety, and why resentment after helping is a signal you can't ignore.
Most importantly, I will give you three concrete tools to begin breaking free from people pleasing: the Pause Practice, the Motive Check (helpful vs. fear-driven), and the Disappointment Challenge a powerful way to build confidence by saying no in low-stakes situations and learn your responses and expectations of saying yes.
Key takeaways: People pleasing is a survival strategy that outlives its usefulness. Your goal isn't to stop caring what others think, it's to stop letting that fear make decisions for you and manage what they are thinking. The most generous thing you can do is show people who you really are.
