People pleasing is often talked about as if it's simply "being too nice" or lacking confidence. But what if it actually has very little to do with either?

In this episode, we're unpacking why people pleasing is often a subconscious survival strategy your nervous system learned years ago and why understanding that changes everything.

In this episode, we cover:

•  Why people pleasing isn't the same thing as kindness
•  The hidden difference between being caring and abandoning yourself
•  How childhood experiences can teach your nervous system that conflict equals danger
•  The fawn response and why your brain defaults to keeping everyone happy
•  The subconscious beliefs driving people pleasing (without you even realising it)
•  Why setting boundaries can feel so uncomfortable, even when you know they're the right thing to do
•  Why guilt isn't always a sign you've done something wrong
•  How to start breaking the cycle without becoming a completely different person
