#30 Why Birthdays Are So Hard for People-Pleasers

from My Holistic Therapist · host Alex Field

In this episode, I explore why birthdays can feel unexpectedly heavy for people-pleasers and women with a fragile sense of self. I unpack how early conditioning, unresolved trauma, and core beliefs like “I’m not good enough” or “I’m unlovable” can come closer to the surface on birthdays, making moments of missed attention or lack of thoughtfulness feel deeply personal.I also share my own lived experience of how birthdays have shifted for me over time as my sense of self has become more grounded, and what actually helps this day feel different.As a birthday gesture, I’m offering a 48-hour flash sale on the HEAL Method - $500 off the full program. If you’ve been considering this work, you can book a call via this link.
