How to Stop Being a People-Pleaser
Are you a people-pleaser? Where did that come from? How did you become one?
These are the questions you have to ask yourself to be able to know how to stop being a people-pleaser.
But, what is a people-pleaser? A people-pleaser is one of the nicest and most helpful people you know. They never say “no.” You can always count on them for a favor. In fact, they spend a great deal of time doing things for other people. They get their work done, help others with their work, make all the plans, and are always there for family members and friends.
That’s the mother who says “I don’t have time to implement this change in my life because I have to take their activities and competition on the weekend. It’s just doesn’t fit in my schedule.
So far this sounds like a good thing. Right?
Unfortunately, it can be an extremely unhealthy pattern of behavior. It leads to shying away from expressing themselves, and ultimately, not taking care of themselves...
If this is you, and you want to stop focusing on others and making you a priority without feeling guilty. You gotta listen to this episode.
