//282: People-Pleasing Is Hurting Your Business More Than You Think
from Seek First CEO: Neuroscience, Scripture, & Spirit-led Strategy for High-performing Christian Women · host Heather Shriver Burns: Master Neuroscience Business Coach, Certified Biblical Life Coach, and Speaker
What if people-pleasing isn’t actually about being a nice person? People-pleasing is one of those patterns that can look loving, generous, and even spiritual—but for Christian women in business, it can affect your pricing, boundaries, visibility, leadership, and income. In this episode, we’re talking about where people-pleasing comes from, how your brain and nervous system can reinforce the pattern, and why someone else’s disappointment can feel so uncomfortable that you automatically explain, overdeliver, soften your message, or change your mind. Because you can care about people without making their feelings the deciding factor in your decisions. And your next level of business may require getting comfortable with someone being disappointed in you.
