When Helping Others is Hurting You: The Truth About People Pleasing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Let’s keep it real: people-pleasing might sound kind and selfless, but when helping others becomes a constant at your own expense, it’s time for a wake-up call. In this episode, we’re diving into what it looks like when your need to make everyone else happy starts draining your energy, your peace, and your purpose.
Do you ever feel like you’re not okay unless everyone else is okay? Do you find yourself saying yes before checking if it actually fits your life—or your calling? Are you worried about how others perceive you more than how you feel in your own soul?
🚨 Newsflash: If your value is tied to how much you're doing for others… it’s time to pause and check-in.
We’re talking about the signs, the traps, and the truth: sometimes God’s best "yes" for you is a holy “no.” Balance is key. Let’s explore it together.
🎙️ Keepin’ It Real Question:
Is people pleasing something you struggle with? What does that look like for you, and how does it show up in your life?
