Breaking Up with People Pleasing When You Reach More Visibility

by | Nov 20, 2024

Hosted by Keri Ford

If you’re a people-pleaser, you might sacrifice your own desires to make others happy or to reduce stress in a situation. In the online space, particularly for entrepreneurs, it’s typical to act in a certain way to avoid “bothering” others or triggering them. However, it’s important to understand that upsetting people as you become more visible and successful is an expected part of the process at any level of success. 

In this episode, Keri discusses the importance of embracing your true self and the challenges of people-pleasing, encouraging women to own their power and not be deterred by the fear of triggering others.

Keri also shares personal experiences to illustrate this concept. For people-pleasers, it’s instinctive to prioritize the wants and needs of others over our own. However, if you want to become a leader, it’s so important to prioritize your own wants and needs. The expectations and emotions of others come after our own. Tune in to learn more!
