Zestful Aging

The Dark Side of People Pleasing


Listen Later

When you think of people pleasing, what comes to mind? Many of my therapy clients are discovering that their long history of trying to make others happy and comfortable is causing them distress. The good news is that as we age, we seem less and less interested in putting everyone's needs first. What's happening here and why might you want to consider paying attention to your need to please others? This week's guest is Amy Wilson, the co-host of the popular podcast "WHAT FRESH HELL". Amy has appeared on Broadway in a one person show, and Saturday Night Live. And she's just written a funny and poignant book called "Happy to Help, Adventures of a People Pleaser".
