If you’ve ever felt fried, frazzled, and weirdly resentful while trying to keep everyone else happy… this one’s for you. As a recovering people-pleaser, I’m sharing how to love fully without outsourcing your worth, absorbing everyone’s moods, or abandoning your own voice. We’ll talk about true self vs. false self, what healthy boundaries really are (and aren’t), and why self-doubt is one of the biggest energy leaks in midlife.

In this episode you’ll learn

How to spot “losing yourself”: constant external validation, silencing your needs, carrying emotions that aren’t yours.

True self vs. false self: dropping the mask, living from belovedness, and becoming a “woman of valor.”

Boundaries done right: sovereign choices versus trying to control other people.

End the self-doubt spiral: reclaim the energy you’re leaking to second-guessing.

Your body keeps score: the biology behind people-pleasing vs. living in truth, gratitude, and joy.

Simple shifts to try this week so you can love from overflow, not depletion.
