Pressure to be Like, People Pleasing, and More
Pressure to Be Liked: People Pleasing and More
Wanting to be liked and understood is human. It can also influence the decisions you make, what you say yes to, and how well you honor the schedule and priorities you’ve created for yourself.
In this episode, Christie talks about the difference between genuinely enjoying helping people and people pleasing. You can be generous, thoughtful, and love taking care of people without making decisions based on whether someone will be disappointed in you.
You’ll also hear how the pressure to be liked can distract you from what you actually want to do. Sometimes you already know your answer, but owning it means being willing to feel uncomfortable or allowing someone else to feel disappointed.
Christie shares a simple question you can use when you’re feeling that pressure and why growing your emotional capacity can help you make honest decisions while still being the caring person you want to be.
