The Author Burnout Cure

157. How to Stop People Pleasing with Sara Bybee Fisk


Listen Later

People pleasing isn't exclusive to our personal lives. The hierarchies of publishing lead many authors into people pleasing patterns with their agents, editors, and even their readers. That's why I invited fellow coach, and people pleasing expert, Sara Bybee Fisk to join me on the podcast this week. She graciously shares her wisdom about the cause of people pleasing and provides actionable tips for what we can do to break the cycle.

You can learn more about Sara, including her Stop People Pleasing Program, at her website. And be sure to check out Sara's podcast, The Ex-Good Girl Podcast.

Finally, don't forget to register for my free workshop Rewriting Your Author Story HERE. The workshop is happening Tuesday, March 18th at 4pm and will teach you how to tell the story of your career in a way that helps you burn bright instead of burning out.
