Today, we’re diving into a book titled Happy to Help: Adventures of a People Pleaser. This collection of essays captures the journey of being the go-to person for everyone’s needs while quietly struggling. It explores the idea of being “happy to help”… even when you shouldn’t be. The essays are hilariously relatable, and what I love most is the author’s raw vulnerability and personal storytelling.

Today on Yoga|Birth|Babies I have the author of this book, Amy Wilson. Amy is the author of the memoir When Did I Get Like This? and her latest book, Happy to Help. Since 2016 she has been the co-host of the Webby-honored podcast What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood. Amy is also an actor who appeared on Broadway and as a series regular on TV sitcoms. She lives with her family in New York City, and also happens to be a PYC alum!

It was such a joy to chat with Amy about her book and a topic so many of us can relate to. We explore people-pleasing, productivity, multitasking, and so much more. I hope you enjoy this episode!
