It's been a hectic summer and after a short summer break, I am back! I meant to post this episode around the 4th of July, but the stories are still relevant. The US sought independence from the British (ignore the mistake on the audio where I said the French... I was clearly distracted), the #FreeBritney movement is still strong and she is finally making headway, and my story of how a disastrous divorce left me wondering if there was a price for my freedom - and how much was I going to be willing to pay.

As I look back in many of my relationships, I realize that I've often mistaken all kinds of different emotions for what I thought was love. How do I know if this is love? I would often ask myself, and the answer is not always that simple. There were needs I needed to met and I simply make the mistake of thinking the meeting of those needs was love.
In this podcast I will share three stories where I made the mistake of thinking I was in love, when in reality I was meeting a different kind of need.

One of the biggest discoveries I made was to understand my patterns of wanting to please others. I had built my life wanting to make sure everyone in my life was happy. I hated it when people were mad at me and I often internalized other people’s feelings as something I had caused and was responsible for fixing. I felt depleted, like no matter how much I gave, it was never good enough.
In this podcast I will walk you through a people pleaser checklist and help you break patterns.
