Why is it so hard to say no? Why do we give so much of ourselves away in the name of harmony, approval, or love?

In this eye-opening two-part episode, the Lifeing: Coast to Coast crew tackles a deeply rooted pattern many of us carry: people-pleasing. From over-functioning caregivers to conflict-avoidant peacemakers, we explore how this survival strategy—often formed in childhood—can quietly erode our sense of self, drain our energy, and distort our relationships.

In Part 1, Dr. Lovey, Heidi, and Moderator Miki walk through two fictionalized-but-familiar coaching case studies based on real-life client experiences. These stories reveal how the desire to be liked, needed, or seen as "easygoing" can mask deeper wounds—and how healing begins with reclaiming our voice, boundaries, and worth.

Meet the Cases:

Karen: A selfless mother who’s forgotten how to want for herself, trapped in the belief that she only matters when she’s needed.

Marcus: The “nice guy” who avoids conflict and gives without asking, until quiet resentment and disconnection set in.

Each story is paired with powerful coaching insights and reflection questions, inviting you to pause and ask:

-Where do I lose myself in the name of peace?

-What would change if I allowed myself to be fully seen and heard?

If you’ve ever felt stretched too thin, held back your truth, or feared being "too much"—this episode is for you. Tune in and take the first step toward shedding the pressure to please and embracing the courage to be real.

Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll explore more cases and strategies to rewrite the people-pleasing script.
