383: Giving Up Too Much To Make Everyone Happy?


Listen Later

Are you a people pleaser? It's not the worst thing in the world to identify as one, however, you may be sacrificing your own happiness in the name of keeping everyone around you happy. You may also grow resentful and have a lot of anxiety around keeping those around you happy. Listen to today's show to learn how to create boundaries, communicate your needs and live a more fulfilling life. 

In this episode with Tonya Lester, we discuss relationship advice topics that include:

  • Traits that may indicate you're a people pleaser and need to create better boundaries for yourself
  • Learning how to engage in healthy conflict instead of always saying yes or bending over backwards to assist others
  • The importance of not talking ourselves out of our feelings
  • How to understand and communicate your expectations in relationships
  • The importance and tools for identifying our needs and communicating them in relationships
  • And much more!
