"Nice" Girls Burnout: The hidden cost of people pleasing

I’m a recovering “nice girl”. I often joke about it, but the reality is, I think I’ll be saying that for years to come. I’ve spent a long time trying to unlearn the habits that come with people pleasing, yet somehow they still manage to show up in all different areas of my life. It impacts the way I lead in business, how I speak up in relationships and the compromises I make in my friendships. Being a “nice girl” is more than just being agreeable and polite. There's a hidden cost to people pleasing that not only hinders your potential, but takes you on a fast track to burnoutSo how do we recover from “nice girl syndrome” and quit trying to please everyone else to our own detriment? We recognise that it’s a product of our socialisation that no longer serves us as adults. We get comfortable with discomfort, setting boundaries or having difficult conversations when necessary. Particularly as women, we ask for what we want, whether it’s a pay rise at work or unmet needs in our relationships. I encourage you to take a step back and observe where these patterns show up in your life. They won't be isolated to one area—they'll be in your work, relationships, social settings and health choices. It’s time to challenge the ingrained habits and start living a more empowered, authentic life. Do you see these symptoms in yourself? And what steps are you taking to overcome them?Website: vesnahrsto.comDouble Your Energy Masterclass: https://peak-revival.captivate.fm/yt-masterclassMentioned in this episode:Buh-Bye Burnout
