Welcome back to another episode of the live with Lorraine podcast! In this episode I give a quick health update in terms of my diagnosis and where I am at after having my appointment with a rheumatologist. The topic of todays episode is people pleasing and how it not only affects those of us that are empathic of kind hearted but how it also affects alot of people who struggle with chronic illness. I go into what it is, how it shows up for people. I also share some really messages that came through to be during meditation about my relationship with people pleasing that allowed me to really recognise my pattern and be ready to change it. I talk about your values and how to figure out what they are in terms of your relationships and I also talk about the power of no. In the episode i recommend the book “not nice by Dr Aziz Gazipura. It’s a fantastic book with really good exercises on people pleasing. I share all of this and more in this super personal and also therapeutic episode. As always everything in this episode is only my opinion from my experience so if you disagree with anything I have said simply stop listening or so whatever you need to do in order to find content better suited to you and your views. I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode either in the comments or by dm. Lots of love, Lx
