Most people think people-pleasing is about being nice it’s not. It’s about fear.Fear of rejection.Fear of conflict.Fear of losing connection. If you grew up in chaos, unpredictability, or emotional insecurity, people-pleasing made sense it was a way to stay safe. But survival strategies don’t always belong in adulthood. People-pleasing costs you: - boundaries - honesty - energy - self-respect Breaking it doesn’t mean becoming cold or selfish it means learning that: - disappointment isn’t danger - saying no won’t destroy you - your needs matter Reflection question:Where in your life are you keeping the peace at the cost of yourself? Drop your thoughts below awareness is the first step to change.
