Are you exhausted from putting everyone else’s needs above your own, especially in a relationship that feels like an emotional battleground? If you’re a people-pleaser navigating a high-conflict marriage or heading into divorce, you’re likely feeling stretched thin, frustrated, and maybe even a little lost. It’s a familiar story for those of us who, often without realizing it, start to sacrifice our own happiness for the sake of “keeping the peace” or avoiding conflict. But here’s the truth: the peace you’re trying to preserve comes at a cost – the cost of your own inner stability, self-worth, and sometimes, your identity.

As you face divorce, these tendencies to prioritize others can become a heavy burden. High-conflict divorces often mean intense emotions, drawn-out negotiations, and high-stakes decisions. And if you’ve been used to compromising your needs for the sake of someone else’s comfort, standing up for yourself now can feel overwhelming. In this process, the same patterns that held you back in marriage – fear of confrontation, the need for validation, and a habit of shrinking yourself – can make it challenging to truly advocate for your needs. The path out of this cycle isn’t easy, but it’s absolutely possible.
