4. People Pleasing

We’re back in your ears this week with episode 4! This episode is all about people-pleasing, and how this type of behaviour robs us of the true freedom and joy that’s available to us in life.

People-pleasing goes deep. Often as children, people pleasers learn to abandon themselves in order to meet their attachment needs - they suppress who they are, their awareness of their gut feelings, and disconnect from their true authentic selves in order to gain approval, belonging, or love.

As adults, if we don’t do our inner work, a lot of behavior may still come from that need to attach. We can still act like children, displaying that need to please in order to be approved at the expense of our authenticity. How do we break out of this? We have some strategies for you.
