Empowerment Solutions With Dr. Friedemann

If you are a self-declared people pleaser, you probably feel more often than not tired of constantly putting others' needs before your own.

But even if you find that you have no energy or time to give to others, you most likely find it difficult to say ‘no’ (or at least ‘not now’). Disappointing others is much harder for you than letting yourself down.

So what will it take to shift the focus away from other people’s needs and wants onto your own?

Listen to this week's episode to find out.

If you have questions about any of the topics that I am sharing in these episodes, join me weekly on Mondays over on my Instagram channel - @dr.friedemannschaub - for Instagram Live, where I will be sharing tips, tools, and strategies on topics like this and more. Come with your questions, and I will answer them live. Or feel free to send them in a DM, and I can answer them on my next Live. - Hope to see you there!

In this episode of Empowerment Solutions, I discuss the downsides of people-pleasing and how it can affect our mental health and sense of self-worth.

I explore the reasons why we might become people-pleasers, from family dynamics to a need for validation and attention.

As someone who has personally struggled with people-pleasing, I share my own experiences and insights on how to overcome it and live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

I believe that by learning to prioritize our own well-being and let go of the need to please others, we can break free from people-pleasing and achieve greater happiness.

Join me in this episode to broaden your understanding of this matter and learn strategies to conquer people-pleasing.

As you begin the journey to self-improvement and emotional healing, it's important not just to identify what has been making life difficult but also think about how far we want our growth and healing process to take us.

Anxiety is something many of us have personally experienced or seen close up; and for those struggling with this intense emotion, it can be a daunting challenge to address. Rather than simply trying "to get rid of" anxiety - which may seem impossible at times - focus on setting achievable goals that will guide you along your path towards outgrowing and overcoming your anxiety.

Join me today and learn how taking small steps each day can make your healing possible.

Our inner critic can be a real Debbie Downer, who can make us feel deflated and trapped. But we don't have to let negative self-talk rule our thoughts and spoil our day. By recognizing the common negative thinking patterns, we can challenge them and replace them with more realistic and positive perspectives.

Although shifting out of habitual self-criticism won’t happen overnight, the good news if you counter-balance just two or three negative thoughts per day, within a couple of weeks, your inner critic's voice will diminish by 70%-80%.

The problem is that you may not always know how to challenge the inner critic, which is why in this week’s podcast episode, I’ll show you 4 effective ways to respond to negative thoughts.

So don't let that inner critic hold you back, and give yourself permission to think positively and treat yourself with more kindness starting today. 

The power to change is in our hands - and minds.

Did you know that our anxiety often stems from our early life experiences? When we were rejected, scolded, or neglected as children, our subconscious was startled and created a new set of beliefs to protect us. This can lead us down one of two paths - the avoidance track where we stay away from potential harm, or the pleasing track where we seek approval from those who are supposed to protect and nourish us.

Although anxiety may seem like an insurmountable obstacle, it can actually be a powerful catalyst for growth and self-discovery. By understanding the root causes of your anxiety and learning how to switch it off, you can transform your fear into fuel and unlock your true purpose in life.

So don't let anxiety hold you back any longer.

Let me ask you, how often do you feel that all you can do is just to get through the day — overwhelmed by your daily obligations, stuck in situations that feel impossible to change, or victimized by people you can’t control or even by your own anxiety?

Welcome to the club; considering that anxiety and stress have been called ‘the epidemic of the 21st century,’ you are certainly not alone.

To help us cope with life’s challenges, our subconscious mind comes to the rescue by employing two survival modes, avoiding and pleasing. Both strategies aim to protect us from what the subconscious considers dangerous threats, such as hurt, criticism, ridicule, rejection, failure, and abandonment.

How do we switch out of these patterns?

Join me on this week's episode of Empowerment Solutions, where I talk about how to turn our survival patterns into keys to authentic self-empowerment.

Burnout is an incredibly serious issue that has become increasingly prominent in today's fast-paced and often demanding work environments. Millions of people struggle with burnout, which is why World Health Organization recently deemed it a classifiable workplace phenomenon.

Burnout was coined in the 1970s to describe the consequences of severe stress on doctors, nurses, and other helping professionals.

Yet over the years, it became clear that burnout can affect us in any career.

Here are the common signs that can tell you whether you are heading toward it:

• Every day is a struggle
• You feel helpless and disillusioned
• Taking care of your job or your family seems like a waste of energy
• You are mentally and physically exhausted all the time
• You have no motivation because nothing you do seems to make a difference
• You find most of your tasks dull or overwhelming

Burnout isn’t a flaw or weakness; it is your mind-body system sending you a strong message that it is time for a course correction. Yet many of us are not paying attention to these signals because we are too externally focused and not connected to our mind and body

Burnout is serious - and with the right tools and support, it is possible to prevent or manage burnout to maintain a healthy work environment and overall well-being.

Find out how you can avoid going into career burnout in this week’s episode of Empowerment Solutions with my special guest Suzanne Monroe, who shares how she went from burnt out to finding her passion and purpose again.

Meet Suzanne Monroe

Suzanne Monroe is the Founder of The International Association of Wellness Professionals (IAWP) and Director of the IAWP’s Holistic Wellness Coach Certification and Training Program. After experiencing career burnout in conjunction with a familial health crisis, Suzanne had a wake-up moment that led her to discover her passion for holistic wellness and her purpose of helping others. Now, she aims to help people reawaken their purpose and find a career they love where last year alone she helped reach 11.5 Million people with the message of holistic wellness and living a life you love. She’s also the author of Live Well Dream Big: The Ultimate Guide to Becoming Your Best Self & Living Life On Your Own Terms and the podcast host of Live Well Dream Big.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed and that no matter how hard you try, you just can’t shake the feeling of being stressed out? It’s possible that you are stuck in a vicious cycle where your body has become accustomed to functioning in a high state of stress.

This is because when we experience chronic stress, our bodies produce excess amounts of cortisol, also known as the “stress hormone”. This hormone is responsible for feelings of fatigue and anxiety, which can further compound the feeling of being overwhelmed and unable to find relief.

So what can we do to break this cycle?

That's exactly what we're going to talk about this week with my guest, best-selling author and functional medicine practitioner Marcelle Pick.
