#20 Are You A People Pleaser?
In this honest and heartfelt episode, Chelsea and BatSheva dive deep into the emotional layers of people pleasing—where it comes from, how it shows up, and the healing path back to self-worth and boundaries.
🔑 5 Takeaways:
- It often starts in childhood. The habit of pleasing others can stem from trying to keep the peace or earn love and approval early in life.
- People pleasing is self-sacrifice disguised as kindness. Pushing down your own needs to avoid conflict eventually leads to burnout and resentment.
- Walking away can feel lonely—but it's growth. Releasing unhealthy dynamics might isolate you at first, but it clears space for aligned, soul-filling relationships.
- Boundaries are a practice, not a switch. Learning to say no with love—and without guilt—is part of the healing journey.
- Your body knows. Tuning into your human design and sacral response can help you distinguish between a genuine yes and a people-pleasing one.
đź’ˇ This episode is a raw, vulnerable reminder that you are allowed to take up space and live a life that's true to you.
