What does it really mean to be “a good daughter”? Where does people pleasing start - and how do we begin to unlearn it?
In this episode of Chocolate and Spice - Two Brown Women Talk, we explore the quiet epidemic of people pleasing - how it’s shaped by culture, gender roles, and childhood expectations, especially in South Asian families.
🎙️ Neha opens up about her journey as a recovering people pleaser, and Nidhi shares what helped her avoid the trap altogether. From family dynamics to career choices, we dive into the real cost of always saying “yes” and how to reclaim your “no” with confidence.
Whether you’re deep in your people-pleasing era or just learning how to set boundaries, this one’s for you.
