I’m embarrassed to admit this even happened. Yet a recent appointment made it crystal clear: I am a people pleaser in an unexpected way, with unintended consequences for people I care about (not to mention myself!)

Furthermore, I experienced in real time when it’s worth it to be uncomfortable for a moment, to save yourself hours of discomfort if you stay silent.

We could call this: The one where my hair was accidentally died red (again) on a day I just happened to have a call with our community here and therefore I had the beautiful accountability to walk back in and show up better for myself.

Links mentioned in this episode:

• The Elegant Excellence Journal is coming so soon. Make sure you’re on the waitlist to hear first!

 

Journal & discussion Q’s:

• When do you not speak up and why?
• When do you cause more discomfort for people close to you by doing so?
• What is and is not rude, or demanding, or high maintenance? What’s the story you/culture tells you, and what’s the neutral truth?
• What do you not think is that when a man does it but do when a woman does?
