Crying While Trying to Recover from People Pleasing

EPISODE 2 -- CRYING WHILE TRYING TO RECOVER FROM PEOPLE PLEASING

If you’ve ever said “it’s fine” when it absolutely wasn’t or bend over backwards just to avoid conflict and keep everyone around you happy, this episode is for you. On this episode, Brooke and Lyze talk about the messy truth of people-pleasing: why we do it, how it drains us, and what happens when we start setting boundaries. From the guilt that comes with saying “no” to the fear of letting people down, we’re unpacking it all — without pretending we have it all figured out — because spoiler alert, we don't (well, at least Brooke doesn't).

Whether you’re a recovering people-pleaser or deep in the thick of it, we share our own crash-outs, the hard truths we've learned in our recovery journey, and the little steps we’re taking toward self-worth, healthier relationships, and not abandoning ourselves for approval.
