Welcome to Day 73 of the 100 Days of SHIFT Challenge!
This week, we're focusing on people pleasing tendencies, and finding ways to help you free yourself from the cuffs that may be holding you back. There is nothing wrong with having a heart that wants to help other people, it's just that it does become a big concern when it starts to deteriorate your own health.
Today... you need to stop hiding. Like. Forreal. When you say you don't want to hurt their feelings, and that's why you're not setting any boundaries or having those tough conversations with them — you're actually just protecting yourself.
Because! Who are you? Who are you to think for someone else? Who are you to determine for someone else what they can and can't handle? Who are you to make these kinds of decisions for them?
Don't make it about them when it's simply about your fear of conflict and people-pleasing tendencies. Give the others a chance to hone in on their own agency too. Give the others a chance to practice communicating their boundaries too.
Listen in, journal, take this seriously. I hope this week can guide you toward a healthier path!
