Ep 19: People Pleasing

This is an episode I will be referring people back to for years to come. If you or someone you know is a people pleaser, you'll want to be sure to bookmark this episode! Many of us are considered people pleasers, which isn't always a bad thing. However, I'm passionate about reframing this concept. This is people pleasing like you've never understood it before.

We start by diving deep into the two core myths that surround people pleasing and what they have to do with making other people happy. As you're listening, you may start to identify as a people pleaser or notice some people pleasing tendencies in yourself. Here's a secret: You're not alone!

I'm also going to be looking at the connection between people pleasing and being a good person. Just because you're done with people pleasing doesn't mean you're not a good person! The purpose of today's episode is to simply take that connection and change the way we look at it. 

In today's episode we're specifically covering:

The five main ways people pleasing shows up for service providersHow people pleasing shows up in over customizing your services and creating custom proposalsHow people pleasing shows up when you undercharge for your servicesWhy you keep saying yes to PITA clientsYour top fears in setting boundaries and expectationsWhy you say yes to things you don't want to doHow you enable clients and create codependencyWhy you care if someone else likes youHow to practice saying no to someone

In next week's episode, we will be talking about creating and upholding boundaries. That episode will go hand in hand with this week's episode because boundaries are the cure to people pleasing; they are the thing that gives you what you want. 

Here's a little challenge for you before next week's episode goes live: Practice saying no. Start saying no to people pleasing, no to tasks you don't want to do and no to PITA clients.
