Kimberley Wilson, chartered psychologist, invites expert guests - trained psychologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists - to join her on her psychology podcast. She's on a mission to sift through all the information and misinformation that’s out there around our mental health to help create more self-awareness and understanding.

In this episode, Kimberley digs down into people pleasing with her guest, consultant psychiatrist Dr Sarah Vohra. What does people pleasing do for us, and what it does it do to us?

Please email complex@bbc.co.uk if there’s anything you would like Kimberley to explore. We might use what you tell us in the show, but we will do so anonymously. If you don’t want your email to be included in the podcast, then please remember to let us know. She's not able to answer emails personally, so if you are concerned you have a medical or mental health issue, then please contact your GP or seek expert help.
