People Pleasing & Self-Sabotage Grenades


Listen Later

I sit down with Heidi Blackie, former healthcare professional, trauma-informed coach, and founder of UnshakableMe, to talk about the hidden cost of people-pleasing and the self-sabotage “grenades” we carry without even realizing it.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why people-pleasing is not kindness—and how to tell the difference
  • What “self-sabotage grenades” are and how to spot them in your life
  • How trauma and nervous system dysregulation fuel burnout cycles
  • The difference between setting a boundary and building a wall
  • What Micro-Boldness is—and how small truth-telling moments change everything


Heidi’s 3 Tools to Start Reclaiming Your Power:

  1. Label your patterns without judgment – Awareness interrupts autopilot
  2. One daily act of self-compassion – Small shifts rewrite big stories
  3. Practice Micro-Boldness – Speak, rest, or ask for what you need
