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.

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.

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—-------—-------—-

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.
Hello ladies! - This week I made a video in which I talk about, “Breaking Free from Fear and People Pleasing in Leadership”. In this video I talk about how people pleasing can negatively affect us and compromise our well-being. Many leaders struggle with people pleasing because they think that being a great leader means having everyone's approval and making everyone happy. The fact is that all leaders will disappoint someone because it is impossible to always keep everyone happy. Listen to this episode as there are so many great nuggets of wisdom and I encourage you to listen to the end. Listen and be blessed! I am a Latin female entrepreneur here to talk with women about being strong leaders that ignite and leave a legacy. I talk about leadership supported by biblical principles that will lead you to success in your life.

This special episode of the Rich Mind Podcast explores how our greatest pain points can become the powerful fuel for life-altering transformation. Randy is joined by a special guest, his daughter Adrienne, who shares a courageous and deeply personal story of leaving a long-term, controlling relationship that was detrimental to her mental and physical health. Adrienne walks through the process of losing her sense of self, the "straw that broke the camel's back" moment, and the immense courage it took to make the decision to leave, even without having all the answers. This conversation is an inspirational masterclass on recognizing when you're stuck, finding the strength to take the first step, and the incredible growth and happiness that waits on the other side of your biggest challenges. Key Takeaways: Your biggest pain point doesn't have to be a roadblock; it can be the catalyst you need to make a necessary change. People-pleasing and self-sacrificing can lead to losing your own identity and accepting treatment you don't deserve. The moment of decision is often sparked by a seemingly small event—"the straw that broke the camel's back." You don't need to have every step figured out to make a change. The first step is the decision itself; the "how" will reveal itself later. Having a support system is crucial, but ultimately, the courage to act must come from within yourself. Taking a "step back" (like moving back home) can be a strategic move to propel yourself two steps forward into a better future. True growth often requires you to let go of a "good" situation to make space for a "great" one. The negative weight of a bad situation is immense, and the feeling of freedom after leaving it is immeasurable. Questions Answered in This Episode: How can your biggest challenge become the fuel for your greatest growth? What are the warning signs of a controlling relationship or a situation that's draining your identity? How do you find the courage to leave a situation when you feel stuck and don't have all the answers? What does the "straw that broke the camel's back" feel like in a real-life scenario? How important is a support system when making a major life change? How do you deal with the fear and uncertainty of the future after making a brave decision? How can stepping back in life temporarily help you move forward in the long run? What does true personal growth and transformation look like after overcoming a major challenge? Key People, Concepts, & Terms: People: Randy Wilson, Adrienne Wilson. Concepts: Pain as Fuel, Growth, Courage, People-Pleasing, Self-Sacrifice, Comfort Zone, Stepping Back to Move Forward, Letting Go, Transformation.

In this episode of "Rise Up Live Joy Your Way," certified life coach Kamini Wood dives into the common habit of people-pleasing, exploring why it's so pervasive and how to break free. She explains that people-pleasing is a persistent tendency to prioritize others' needs and desires over your own, often stemming from a fear of rejection or a need for approval. Drawing on research from neuroscience and psychology, Kamini discusses how these behaviors are reinforced by the brain's reward pathways and can be linked to insecure attachment styles from childhood. She offers a compassionate, science-backed guide to overcoming this pattern through boundary-setting, cognitive reframing, and self-compassion, empowering listeners to live a more authentic life.Discover more powerful tips and guidance here: https://www.kaminiwood.com/blog/Learn more about my coaching services: https://www.kaminiwood.com/services/Follow me for more empowering inspiration and guidance:https://www.instagram.com/itsauthenticme/https://www.facebook.com/itsauthenticme/https://www.pinterest.com/itsauthenticme/
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.

Does people pleasing play a role in your lack of satisfaction in your relationships? Let me be your breakup buddy! Get direct access to my calendar here to schedule a FREE consultation.We are often motivated to people please and sacrifice our own time, comfort, energy, and even happiness from a place of lack. It also comes from a place of not loving and respecting ourselves fully, which can never lead to vibrant, mutually supportive relationships. There is hope in the knowledge that people pleasing can be un-learned. We can always discover and adopt new ways of showing up for ourselves and others. Remember, when we put ourselves first the rest falls into place.

Are you always the one saying yes — even when you want to say no? If you're constantly putting everyone else's needs before your own, you might be stuck in the people pleasing trap — and it could be rewiring your brain in dangerous ways. In this episode, I share how chronic people pleasing not only impacts your emotional well-being but may also put your cognitive health at risk.What to Listen For[00:02:10] How social connections reduce dementia risk — and why quality matters more than quantity[00:04:00] The childhood experience that rewired Amy's brain to prioritize others over herself[00:06:30] The anxious loop people pleasers live in: scanning for approval and avoiding rejection[00:08:10] The advice from a mentor that changed everything: “No is a complete sentence”[00:09:20] Why people pleasing is a form of self-abandonment[00:10:30] The fawn response: how appeasing others is a trauma-based coping mechanism[00:11:50] The neurological impact of people pleasing: cortisol, hippocampal shrinkage, and memory loss[00:13:15] Brene Brown's distinction between “fitting in” and “true belonging” — and how it applies to brain health[00:15:40] The hidden toll on cognitive function: anxiety, indecision, and loss of interoception[00:21:10] 3 strategies to rewire your brain and stop compulsive complianceChronic people pleasing isn't just draining — it's dangerous. It keeps your brain in a constant stress loop, contributes to inflammation, and erodes your self-trust. But the good news is this: your brain is plastic, and with every boundary you set, you're creating a new pathway toward resilience, clarity, and health. Start by inserting a pause, practicing low-stakes boundaries, and reconnecting with your authentic self.
Have you ever felt a quiet knowing that something in your life was off — and tried to ignore it because you feared what it might change? In this episode, we talk about what happens when that quiet knowing becomes impossible to ignore. Amber Rae shares how meeting someone unexpectedly brought a truth she had been avoiding into sharp focus—a truth that, once faced, meant her marriage and the life she'd built would have to change. She opens up about telling her then-husband, navigating the fear and guilt that followed, and the backlash that came from choosing what felt true over what felt safe. We explore how to know if it's time to stay or go, the role of self-trust in big decisions, and why liberation is always a two-way street. We also dive into breaking free from people-pleasing, setting boundaries that last, and working with emotions like guilt and anger without letting them run the show. Amber talks about reclaiming intimacy after years without it, voicing insecurities to deepen connection, and following what brings you alive in love, career, and life. If you've ever wondered what might happen if you truly listened to yourself, this conversation will give you the courage and clarity to find out. === Have you watched our previous episode with Dr. Jude Currivan?

[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.

Tawny and Lisa talk about Tawny's recent Beyond Liquid Courage newsletter, "People Pleasing is Over." She learned through years of recovery and therapy that her people-pleasing is tied to her codependency. Lisa learned in early recovery that if she didn't stop always trying to please others, she wasn't going to be able to stay sober. People pleasing is more nuanced than just doing something for a loved one because you want to. It's about doing something for someone else because you fear disappointing them at the risk of your own mental and physical health.

What was your biggest Takeaway from this Episode! I would Love to hear from you!Fixing What Isn't Broken: People Pleasing, ADHD, Autism, and the Gift of Difference with Christine Molina, LCSWHave you ever felt like you're broken because you struggle with people pleasing, ADHD, or Autism? In this powerful episode of Empowering Women in Conversations, Anita Sandoval, LPC-S, sits down with Christine Molina, LCSW, EMDRIA-Approved Consultant, trainer, and neurodiversity advocate, to challenge the medical model myths and reframe how we see our brains.Christine shares:
Most of us worry about what others think of us. While this is probably a useful survival instinct, it can also turn into a kind of neurotic rumination, leading us to prioritize people-pleasing over our own needs. Why we do this, and how we can move past it, is the topic of the new book Are You Mad at Me?: How to Stop Focusing on What Others Think and Start Living for You by psychotherapist Meg Josephson.

You know boundaries matter — so why does saying no still feel like betrayal? This episode exposes the deeper identity-level misalignment and shows you how to create boundaries that don't just work… but feel like you.You know the script: You say yes, even when you're stretched thin. You keep the peace, carry the load, and tell yourself, “This is just what it takes.”But beneath that over-functioning is a quieter truth: Saying no still feels wrong — not because you're weak, but because your identity is wired for performance and approval.In this episode of the Identity-Level Recalibration podcast, Julie Holly shares a deeply personal reflection on the tangled guilt behind boundary-setting — and why sustainable boundaries require an identity shift, not a time hack.You'll explore:The real reason saying no triggers guilt, obligation, and confusionWhy high performers override their own needs, even with the best boundary scriptsA powerful reframe that moves you from resentment to rhythmHow your yes might be protecting a role that's quietly eroding your alignmentYou'll also hear a faith-rooted story about The Best Yes by Lysa TerKeurst — and how one friend's timely suggestion led Julie to rewire her understanding of identity, boundaries, and divine alignment.—Today's Micro Recalibration:Ask yourself:“Where in my life have I been saying yes out of fear or obligation, not alignment?” Then ask: “What would a boundary rooted in self-trust look like in that space?”For leaders:“Where have we been absorbing friction instead of setting clear expectations?”You weren't meant to burn out to be trusted.Sustainable boundaries don't come from behavior tweaks — they come from identity recalibration.RESOURCES:BOOK: The Best Yes, by Lysa TerKeurstIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.
