Ep 242: Tuesday Tidbit: Joyful Rebellion for the People Pleasers

Erica Episode 242

A quick little follow-on from Episode 241 all about JOYFUL REBELLION.
Haven't listened that episode yet? I recommend checking it out.

Because today I'm talking about what joyful rebellion has to do with people pleasing behaviour.

In this episode you'll hear:

  • The well-meaning instruction I overheard that points to why listening to your own body/desires can be SO HARD
  • What it means to joyfully rebel from the 'rules'
  • Why so many of these supposed 'rules' are just arbitrary assessments of good/bad, better/worse, right/wrong not true reflections of an ultimate GOODness.
