Welcome back to another Wisdom Point, where we are continuing our focus on how to stop people-pleasing! Today's episode is all about those tricky moments when we realize we might be spreading ourselves too thin to please others.

You know those commitments you've made that you're not entirely sure about anymore? Yeah, I’m talking about those. And maybe these commitments served you in a different season. But maybe now… they aren’t. Reflecting on an episode from back in 2018 called "I'm Not Above Backing Out," we're revisiting the lessons learned about prioritizing our peace over people-pleasing.

Sometimes, we just need a little reminder. So let this clip from “I’m Not Above Backing Out” serve as the reminder that you can say no to others in order to say yes to yourself.
