Am I Just “Nice,” Or Am I A People Pleaser? Signs You’re People Pleasing
Episode Description
Somatic trauma therapist Chloe Bean joins Felicia and Kristie to talk everything people-pleasing. Drawing from her expertise in high-functioning anxiety, Chloe breaks down people-pleasing as a learned trauma response. She explains how it can originate from a childhood need for safety and why prioritizing others leads to resentment and losing yourself.
Some takeaways:
- How people-pleasing works as a survival habit
- The connection between people-pleasing and losing yourself
- How prioritizing others' needs often leads to exhaustion and resentment
- Shifting from fear to setting authentic boundaries
