Send one way text to Rev Rachel Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I'm only as happy as my least happy child"? This seemingly loving sentiment actually reveals a profound codependent belief that makes us responsible for others' emotions while neglecting our own healing journey. As I discovered with my own family, no amount of fixing or controlling could make my unhappy child happy—that was his journey to walk. Only when I released my grip on controlling outcomes and turned inward did things begin to transform.Perfectionism, helping behaviors, and our need to "fix" others often masquerade as positive traits—but they're actually sneaky forms of codependency that keep us trapped in cycles of control. When we obsess over making everything perfect or rush to save others from their emotions, we're not being helpful—we're attempting to manage our own discomfort and create safety through control.The 9-Step Soul Recovery Process offers a spiritual path out of these patterns. Through this process, we replace the drive to fix others with self-compassion, embrace new beliefs about our inherent worthiness, and shift our lens from fear to love.This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not allied or representative of any organizations or religions, but is based on the opinions and experience of Rev.

Forrest and therapist Meg Josephson explore the fawn response, a survival strategy where safety is sought by pleasing other people. They discuss how fawning can start as self-protection in childhood, but later morph into overthinking, hypervigilance, and self-abandonment. Meg shares her own experience, including how fawning creates resentment and makes it difficult to find a healthy relationship or figure out your authentic needs. Topics include becoming aware of unconscious habits, building distress tolerance, grief, self-compassion, healthy boundaries, and speaking up for ourselves.

Why do we keep ending up in toxic relationships — even when we know better? ⁠Buy the book Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves--and How to Find Our Way Back ⁠ In this powerful conversation, Kwame Christian sits down with psychologist and trauma therapist Dr. Ingrid Clayton to explore the hidden reason behind this pattern: the fawning trauma response. Ingrid shares how complex trauma rewires the nervous system, why simply “setting boundaries” often doesn't work, and how shame keeps us stuck in cycles of people-pleasing. Together, they unpack the science of safety, what it really takes to break free, and why healing is less about quick tips and more about reconnecting with yourself.

In this pep talk, I open up about my own people-pleasing tendencies and where they come from, how they've impacted my life, and the ways I've been learning to overcome them as a mom. Motherhood brings so many responsibilities, expectations, and pressures, and people-pleasing only adds to the weight we carry.This isn't just about learning to say no. It's about honoring your needs, trusting your intuition, and not letting others sway you away from what you know is best for your life and your family. Your feelings matter. Your voice matters. And you deserve to be seen, heard, and understood without abandoning yourself in the process.I hope this short episode gives you a little boost of encouragement for the week ahead.

Too many women think that taking the high road makes them strong, wise, or 'the bigger person.' But what if that road is actually keeping you stuck in self-abandonment, silence, and disappointment?  In this episode, I break down why the high road can be a trap, what to do instead, and how decentering men frees you to finally choose yourself.  Get my FREE Guide to Decentring Men and Taking Your Throne  Sign up for The Selfish Woman Newsletter  Get the Untethered Workshop  The Selfish Year - get your copy now!  Write a review for The Selfish Year 

Why do we keep ending up in toxic relationships — even when we know better? ⁠Buy the book Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves--and How to Find Our Way Back ⁠ In this powerful conversation, Kwame Christian sits down with psychologist and trauma therapist Dr. Ingrid Clayton to explore the hidden reason behind this pattern: the fawning trauma response. Ingrid shares how complex trauma rewires the nervous system, why simply “setting boundaries” often doesn't work, and how shame keeps us stuck in cycles of people-pleasing. Together, they unpack the science of safety, what it really takes to break free, and why healing is less about quick tips and more about reconnecting with yourself.

Bestie, let's talk!

Do you say “yes” when your body says “no”? This episode is a gentle guide to stop people-pleasing and start speaking your truth.The speaker explores the fear of being seen and the habit of fawning—agreeing to keep the peace—even when it doesn't feel right. You'll learn a simple way to tell the difference between your authentic intuition and old people-pleasing patterns: pause, breathe, and ask clear yes/no questions like, “Do I want this?” “Will it be good for me?” The episode highlights Satya (truthfulness) from yoga philosophy and the practice of Ishvarapranidhana (surrender), reminding us we can offer our truth but cannot control how others receive it. There's also a science lens: social fear can feel like physical pain, yet every small act of honest expression rewires the brain toward self-trust and resilience. You'll finish with a short grounding practice—hand on throat and heart—and affirmations like “I am safe to be seen.” If you're ready to move from external approval to inner anchoring, this conversation will help you begin—kindly, clearly, and now.—-------—-------—-Episode Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:01:42 Being Seen, Heard, Valued00:02:34 Fear of Judgment vs. Truth00:04:08 Naming Fawning (People-Pleasing)00:04:46 Satya: Living in Truth00:06:15 Intuition vs. Old Patterns00:10:17 Body-Led Yes/No Questions00:12:30 Collecting a Clearer Truth00:14:21 Neuro Lens: Social Pain & Fear00:15:58 Why Speak Your Truth00:17:47 External Validation vs. Inner Anchor00:21:05 Ishvarapranidhana: Surrender00:21:56 Rewiring for Self-Trust00:23:23 Conscious Boundaries & Choices00:24:32 Grounding Questions00:25:18 Hand-to-Throat/Heart Practice00:29:11 Willing, Not Fearless00:30:19 Authenticity over Perfection00:33:05 Reflective Prompts & Close—-------—-------—-

If you've ever found yourself saying “yes” when you really meant “no,” this one's for you. In this episode, we're talking about the heart of people-pleasing: why we do it, how it sneaks up on us, and what it's really costing us.I'm sharing one powerful question that helps you shift out of auto-yes mode and back into alignment with our truth. It's simple, but it opens a door to self-respect, boundaries, and a whole new kind of freedom.Because your time, energy, and truth are sacred... and every “yes” you give should honor that.

Do people often call you “so strong”... like it's a compliment? You hold everything together. You always show up. You're the one everyone turns to—at work, at home, in your friend group.

Wir sind zurück aus der Sommerpause und starten direkt mit einem Hot Take. In den letzten Jahren haben wir viel über soziale Ängste, People Pleasing und das Drinnie-Sein gesprochen – Themen, die alle ihre Berechtigung haben. Aber: Allzu oft wird vermeintliche Introvertiertheit als Ausrede genutzt. Die Folge? Wir lassen uns gegenseitig zu häufig hängen, haben zu viel Angst, unsere Comfort Zone zu verlassen, oder scheuen uns davor, anderen zuliebe auch mal einen anstrengenden Abend durchzustehen. Da darf man sich nicht wundern, wenn es mit dem Community-Building nichts wird. Zu glauben, dass schon die Extrovertierten dafür sorgen, alle zusammenzuhalten, greift zu kurz und schiebt die Verantwortung auf andere ab. Zeit also für einen Call-Out – oder besser: ein Call-In.

Feeling the pressure to perform, please, or prove? Leadership doesn't collapse because of external pressure — it unravels from internal misalignment. This episode shows you how to reclaim influence from the inside out.When pressure builds — do you perform, please, or posture?In today's episode, we're diving deep into a leadership truth few acknowledge: real influence doesn't come from managing perception. It comes from anchoring in identity — especially when the stakes are high.Whether you're a founder, creative, or leader carrying silent pressure, this episode reveals how internal misalignment slowly erodes your presence, integrity, and impact. Drawing on the story of Jesus in Gethsemane, we show how leadership under pressure isn't about getting louder — it's about getting truer.If you've ever felt the cost of being misunderstood, the temptation to over-explain, or the exhausting urge to control outcomes — this conversation will recalibrate your core.You'll learn:Why identity-level congruence is your leadership stabilizerHow performance-based leadership creates hidden fracturesWhat it really means to lead from integrity, not imageThe quiet power of presence when words fall shortToday's Micro Recalibration:“Where am I leaking energy trying to be understood, instead of being anchored in who I am?”Return to alignment. Let presence speak louder than performance.Team Recalibration Prompt:Bring this to your team: “Here's what I've been reflecting on about my own leadership under pressure. I'm committed to leading from clarity, not reaction. What's one way we can each protect integrity over perception in our work this week?”Start here — because your leadership wasn't meant to be performative. It was meant to be powerful — from the inside out.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

If you've ever said yes when you really wanted to say no—whether it's to a drink, an invitation, or keeping alcohol in the house for guests—you're not alone. Women who over-drink often over-do in every area of life. We people-please, over-commit, and ignore our own needs to avoid disappointing others. But here's the truth: every dishonest yes chips away at your self-trust and keeps you stuck in the cycle of over-drinking. In this episode, I'll show you why trusting yourself with your yes and no is the foundation for real freedom. You'll learn how to spot the difference between a clean yes and a guilt-driven one, why honesty in your relationships is essential for change, and how practicing small nos can help you build confidence and self-trust. This is the episode to listen to if you're ready to stop people-pleasing, start trusting yourself, and create relationships built on honesty—not obligation.

[7] And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas. [8] And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them. [9] And he answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?” [10] For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up. [11] But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead. [12] And Pilate again said to them, “Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?” [13] And they cried out again, “Crucify him.” [14] And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him.” [15] So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
