Description
No People Pleasing Zone is where women who’ve spent years disappearing finally walk themselves back into the room.
If you’re done being the emotional shock absorber, the peacekeeper, the one-who-holds-it-all-together; You Belong Here.
Hosted by EZ, a somatic guide and liberator of hidden patterns. This podcast dismantles the pleasing & appeasing paradigm with depth, ferocity, humor, and a whole lot of truth. Through story, embodied insight, and deliciously rebellious reframes, EZ helps you return to you. The version of you who no longer negotiates her worth or shrinks to make others comfortable.
This isn’t mindset. This isn’t self-help. And this sure as hell isn’t “how to be a better woman.”
This is your portal out of survival mode and straight into sovereignty.
Each episode pulls back the curtain on the patterns you inherited, the fears that shaped you, and the desires you’re finally ready to claim. Not to fix you, but to remind you what power feels like when it’s lived from love, not fear.
Welcome to the No People Pleasing Zone.
Bring your whole damn self.

Send us a text Welcome to season 2! In this episode I explore what caused me to burn out in 2021 – resulting in an abrupt ending to season 1 of No People Pleasing Zone. And discuss how I had to double down, and lean into, the one essential thing that helps build and maintain self-trust. Self-trust is essential for overcoming fears and achieving goals. Relying on external push-culture sources for motivation is not only unhelpful, but can be down-right detrimental. Developing tru...
Send us a text What is the single most important thing my audience needs to know about self-love? That’s the question I asked fellow presenters at last year’s Women Inspiring Women Conference. With the theme of Self Love: I am Enough You are Enough, it seemed a great opportunity to collect some thoughts on a topic that can be a bit difficult to clearly define. Today’s episode is from my interview vault. I’m returning from an extended podcast break, and I’m making a few tweaks so I...
Send us a text Asked recently if it is always wrong to be a People Pleaser – I realized that the question provides an opportunity to dive deep. In this episode, I explore motivation, how People Pleasing isn’t who we are, and the self-judgment of the inner critic. The motivation behind People Pleasing action is important. We can either be seeking acceptance or come from a place that resonates with the core of who we are. Only we can determine if we are People Pleasing – and that sometime...
Send us a text Do you ever find yourself returning to the same painful feelings over and over? It’s your very own version of Ground Hog Day. Maybe you find yourself using the common coping mechanism of numbing out just to avoid those feelings. In today’s episode, we learn about the differences between emotions and feelings, and we identify the sweet spot where we can play with influencing our feelings. Emotions are physiological sensations experienced in the body. They come before feeli...
Send us a text How does one approach those things that are desires, but drain energy levels? In today’s episode, I get vulnerable and explore how I’ve entered a pattern of allowing the No People Pleasing Zone to drain my energy and inhibit my ability to show up in my fullness. I identify what I desire, and struggle through the drawbacks to my current approach. Over the years, the most important lesson I’ve learned about the People Pleasing Rabbit Hole is the need to shift perspective. Listen ...
Send us a text The holidays are quickly approaching – or if you are in the US – they’re here. Humans stuck down, what I call, The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole are often stressed, depressed, angry, frustrated, filled with resentment, and neglect self-care. Experts suggest setting boundaries. But, setting boundaries can be really difficult when what we desire most is connection and belonging. Boundaries can feel counter to our desires. But if we develop boundaries that naturally arise from...
Send us a text Microaggressions aren’t just found in racism, sexism, or towards LGBTQ2 communities. Found anywhere power structures place one group of people above others, microaggressions are based in community biases. They are accumulative and help to enforce status quos. Humans stuck down, what I call, The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole understand microaggressions as cues to how they should BE in the world. Microaggressions send impactful messaging on a verbal level, but significantly also on...
Send us a text Energy Vampires seek out your energy to uplift their self-esteem, and they can show up anywhere. Humans stuck down, what I call, The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole are often empaths and can find themselves prime targets for Energy Vampires. We don’t always realize that Energy Vampires exist – but they do – they are very real. Long-term relationships with Energy Vampires can cause chronic stress, which has real-world health consequences. In today’s show learn: That the...
Send us a text What is “resilience”? When we take a look at the meaning of resilience in the context of physics, we begin to really tease out the nuance of what resilience is. So often when we talk about resilience, we are really talking about something else – survival. There is a significant difference between resilience and survival – and the two often get wrapped up into one. Survival techniques are what we develop down The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole, while resilience is a key to climbing...
Send us a text What if embracing the word ‘witch’ releases a kind of internal magic that changes lives? What if self-identifying as a witch could feel empowering? In this episode, we meet with Kirsty Dee and Isabel Lamar, a couple of modern-day witches, to explore how reclaiming the word ‘witch’ has changed everything. The word witch has been used as a slur, attaching stigma to, generally, women. In the past, and still, today in some parts of the world, being identified as a witch was, and is...
Send us a text Imagine shifting from a generic life to a life full of magic. Recently I spoke with Meghan Gilroy about moving from people pleasing to a life that flows by being tuned into intuition. Meghan, founder of the Fully Shining Women Wisdom School, views intuition as an antidote to people pleasing, where we start asking ourselves ‘what is true for me?’ and living the journey from outside to inside. Intuition is: illogical, difficult to trust, and scary. Together Meghan and...
Send us a text The Inner Critic is a judgmental inner voice that has us talking to ourselves in ways we would never talk to others. For women stuck down The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole, the Inner Critic points out our inadequacies, impacting self-esteem and self-worth. It creates a feeling of shame. It shows up in the form of · Comparison · Personalization · Should statements · Labeli...
Send us a text The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole is a place – a place where we behave a certain way. It is acceptable and expected that we behave in certain ways down The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole. And so, we do. In today’s episode, we explore why I’ve come to use this term rather than talking about People Pleasing behaviours. We get clear on what is meant by the People Pleasing Rabbit Hole to provide common context and understanding so that we are on the same page as we explore and dis...
Send us a text People Pleasing is so entrenched in our culture that it has become part of the status quo. On many levels, the culture benefits from people-pleasing behaviours. When those of us stuck down what I call The People Pleasing Rabbit Hole, begin to heal ourselves and climb out of this way of being in the world, it is a rebellious act. It is a challenge to a way of being in the world that is based on DOing; doing what we believe other people need and expect from us. Removing our...

In this episode of the No People Pleasing Zone, explore the three characteristics of the Autumn equinoxes. · Abundance, celebration, thanksgiving · &nb...
Send us a text It is time to stop muting your voice and your truth because you have something worthwhile to say. Returning to a social setting means returning to situations where it sometimes feels easier to stay silent and not rock the boat. But, a year and a half of not needing to control your voice may leave you desiring the ability to use your voice in the community to speak up for things you believe. In this episode, I’ll teach you the Adventurous Thrill technique so that you can stop st...
