As a recovering people-pleaser one of the most important things I have done for myself is to give myself permission to live the life want instead of the one everyone else wanted. In this episode I talk about: 

• the “permission” question and how it unlocks change 
• how people pleasing forms for queer and marginalized folks 
• perfectionism as a strategy for approval and safety 
• growing up with an identity built around one praised talent 
• why we cannot control others’ happiness or opinions 
• boundaries as the antidote to being endlessly “likable” 
• practicing wants in small ways to rebuild self-trust 
• saying no and learning to tolerate guilt 
• permission to feel negative emotions without panic 
• permission to be bad at something and stay a beginner 
• permission to take up space instead of shrinking 

And if you're ready to be the permission you were always looking for, but don't know where to start, book a consultation call with me. We'll explore where you're stuck and how you can move forward on your journey to freedom from people pleasing.
