Coaching to stop people-pleasing
It could be you are taking on too much at work, feeling exhausted all the time, seeming to have no time for joyful things for yourself, running around after other people and feeling resentful, giving away money, time, or emotional energy that you do not have, or simply feeling that you've lost yourself and this life you are living is just not what you want.
As a reformed people-pleaser myself, I understand the complexity of taking steps out of this pattern and the anxiety and fear we can feel as we consider the consequences of saying no and setting boundaries. We fear we might start a fight or confrontation, or fear rejection, as we fear hurting someone else by not helping them.
I personally find the term people-pleasing a little simplistic, I think it misses the complexity of why people would consistently put others needs before themselves, to their own detriment.
The habit is picked up in childhood and the degree of difficulty you find in identifying your own needs, saying no, setting boundaries and putting yourself first, is directly proportional to how problematic/dangerous you thought it would be for you to do this in childhood.
I am warm compassionate, experienced and focused in helping people make permanent changes to a pattern that was necessary and helpful in childhood but needs to be stopped now and changed in adulthood.
