Fawning: When People-Pleasing Becomes Survival

We’re kicking off Season 2 with a deep dive into a topic many of us can relate to but rarely discuss: fawning. You’ve heard of fight, flight, and freeze, but what about fawning? This often-overlooked trauma response is all about people-pleasing as a means of self-preservation. But where does it come from, and how can it impact our relationships, mental health, and sense of self?

In this episode, we uncover: ✨ What fawning is and how it shows up in our daily lives ✨ The connection between fawning and trauma ✨ Why being “too nice” might be harming you more than helping you ✨ Practical steps to break free from people-pleasing patterns

With wit, compassion, and a few hard truths, we’re shedding light on this survival strategy and giving you the tools to reclaim your voice and boundaries.

If you’ve ever felt like you say “yes” to everything (even when you want to scream “no”), this episode is for you.
