85: My People Pleaser Relapse - Shameless Leadership

What this episode covers

I recently had 2 People Pleaser relapses. One was just for a day. One was for a couple months. Why is it so hard to stop pleasing all. the. people??? I know that as an Upholder (see article below), being a people pleaser may well be something I always struggle with. But, even if it’s a life long challenge, I will kick off 2017 recognizing where I fell short in 2016. I will recognize what I lost by prioritizing other peoples’ needs before my own. In 2017 I will: Say NO more Say YES less Stand up for myself Tune in to my body and really listen Push myself to keep firm boundaries around my time, money, space, goals Start following my intuition in terms of where I really want to go in life over the next few years What will you do to really listen to yourself and your needs as you prepare to enter a new year?
