Hi, my name is Kiah and I am a recovering people pleaser. I’m introducing myself like I’m at a people pleasers anonymous meeting and honestly, if those groups don’t exist maybe they should.

As a people pleaser, I have had a tendency in my life to keep my thoughts and feelings to myself because I didn’t want to rock the boat, upset people, or just generally be uncomfortable. I saw my thoughts and feelings as a me problem and I didn’t want to burden anybody else with them. There are some problems with this which we’ll get into in a second, but as a recovering people pleaser, one of my main goals I’ve been working on is being brave with my words.

In this episode, we chat about:

• You aren’t alone in your people pleasing ways
• The more we internalize our feelings, the scarier they feel and the harder they are to manage
• Keeping your emotions and feelings bottled up doesn’t serve you or others
• The power of journaling
