Who is Sick of Being a People Pleaser?
About this episode
What if all of the women in the world just decided to stop helping tomorrow? The world would shut the hell down, is what would happen.
One of the things that I've realized about myself is that I am an intensely over committed, pathetic people pleaser. I am always offering to help way more than anyone ever expects.
My guest today, Amy Wilson wants us to recognize this about ourselves. She isn't here to help us fix it, but just to see it. Amy has always been the ultimate helper. She describes herself as a big sister, a girl scout, a faithful reader of teen magazines, a personal assistant and a mom of three. And she's always kind of thought that it was her destiny to be a people pleaser, to put other people first. Until it all got to be too much.
