Today we're talking people-pleasers, well, recovering people-pleasers that is. We sit down with Self-Care Coach, Carley Schweet to talk about how she went from being a yes-woman, to a woman with boundaries. Carley started her career in the corporate fashion industry in New York City and was often the yes-woman that the corporate world and her job wanted her to be. She was afraid to say no and afraid to hurt others' feelings. After years of people-pleasing, Carley decided enough was enough and she quit her job and enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition to become an IIN Health Coach.

Her self-care practice helped her gain more confidence to create boundaries and make her needs a priority. On today's episode, we talk about: 

• People-pleasing and why we feel the need to say yes so often
• What it means to be a recovering people-pleaser
• How self-care can boost your confidence
• Why it's important to create boundaries

She helps them learn how to count and manage money, how to exchange money and how to talk about money without shame.
