38: How to STOP People Pleasing when you've been doing it your whole life!

Amanda felt her chest get heavy and the weight sinks into her stomach. Why did she agree to the project deadline? She knew she had two other deliverables too close to that date! Frustrated with herself, feeling stuck and helpless, she recognized her people-pleasing tendencies at least... What she didn't know was how these small acts of "service" were never checked with the Lord. They had become a form of self-betrayal, one acting outside of God's will, damaging her identity in Christ. She couldn't trust herself to protect herself and was frequently taken advantage of.
