Such great advice! I've been weaning myself off people pleasing after 75 years thanks to recognising my lack of self care & good boundaries were contributing to my recent burnout. Sigh! As an eldest daughter, mum & grandma it's been hard but "made easier" by my father's eventual passing early last year aged 100!
I’m so pleased you found some advice here that resonated. People-pleasing can be an incredibly hard habit to break but is incredibly healing and freeing when we do. Thank you for sharing your experience- I know it will resonate with many. Sending love x
Helen, I just came across you and your podcast episode with Dr. Aviva Romm. Beautiful. I’ve been saying I’m a recovering people-pleaser—esp since I went thru menopause. So many of these tendencies have shifted. It’s a process. I’m really trying to guide my teen daughter, too. Start small, but just start. 🦋
Oh thank you so much and it’s wonderful to have you here in this space. Oh the eternal recovering people-pleaser - so many will resonate. And I love that you’re guiding your teenage daughter - beautiful role modelling. Sending love ❤️
