30 APR 2024 · Welcome to the 3rd listener monthly Q&A on The Commitment to Growth Podcast! In this insightful episode, we're sending off the "Healing the Inner People Pleaser" monthly theme by diving deep into the intricate world of people-pleasing through a curated Q&A session fueled by questions from our engaged listeners. We delve into the nuanced layers of this pervasive behaviour, providing practical insights, empathetic understanding, and empowering solutions. We address the familiar tug-of-war between self-assertion and self-abandonment that plagues long-time people-pleasers. Listeners are guided through the complex psychology behind this phenomenon, exploring the roots of seeking validation through sacrificing authenticity. Listeners are treated to a rich tapestry of inquiries ranging from setting boundaries while battling the fear of appearing rude to differentiating between people-pleasing and narcissism. We chat about how to embrace vulnerability as a catalyst for growth, fostering honest dialogues that pave the way for authentic connections. Practical strategies for content creators grappling with people-pleasing tendencies in the digital realm are also unpacked, shedding light on the importance of staying true to one's voice amidst the noise of algorithms and trends. The episode culminates in an exploration of unattachment as a transformative practice for people-pleasers, urging listeners to redefine their worth beyond external validation. Through poignant anecdotes, relatable insights, and actionable advice, this Q&A episode serves as a beacon of hope for those navigating the labyrinth of people-pleasing in their personal and professional lives.

People pleasers operate from a fear of losing love, while narcissists have an exaggerated sense of self-importance. - Content creators who are people pleasers should practice showing up authentically on social media and not be attached to the response or validation of others. - Unattachment is important in healing the inner people pleaser. It means not tying our worth to the responses of others and standing in our authenticity regardless of how we are received. - Being unattached allows us to feel safe in our relationships, reduces stress levels, and opens us up to more love and acceptance. - It's important to be okay with not being liked by everyone and to be willing to be disliked. The people who truly love and resonate with us will be drawn to our authenticity.  Chapters: 00:00 Introduction and Monthly Theme 05:25 Empowering Yourself to Speak Up 09:24 Setting Boundaries and Overcoming Fear of Rejection 09:52 Setting Boundaries: Deepening Relationships 14:13 People Pleasing vs. Narcissism 19:54 Authenticity as a Content Creator Want to work with me more intimately to build resilience in your life?

23 APR 2024 · In this conversation, I sit down with Karenna Soto, a Burnout keynote Speaker and trauma-informed somatic practitioner. We explore the common fears of people-pleasers, such as not being liked, understood, losing people, and not belonging. We explore the concept of inner child healing and how it can help individuals connect with their authentic selves. Karenna emphasizes the significance of learning to give oneself what one needs and wants, rather than relying on others for validation and fulfillment. Our conversation highlights the importance of vulnerability and open communication in relationships, as well as the process of creating a sense of safety within oneself. Ultimately, we guide and encourage listeners to recognize their worthiness and prioritize their own needs and desires to break free from their people-pleasing cycles.   Karenna is a dynamic force in communication, relationship-building, and anxiety management, dedicated to empowering female leaders. With four years as a certified life coach and trauma-informed somatic practitioner, she guides women in speaking their truth, honouring their capacity, navigating tough conversations, and preventing burnout.

She now serves as a professional speaker and podcast host of The Fully Expressed Podcast with Karenna.   Keywords: people-pleasing, fears, healing journey, self-compassion, authenticity, self-love, self-love, people-pleasing, inner child healing, authenticity, vulnerability, communication, worthiness   To connect with Karenna, follow her socials! https://karennasoto.com/podcast/ https://www.instagram.com/iamkarennasoto/   Takeaways: - People-pleasing is often driven by the fear of not being liked, losing people, and not belonging. - The fear of judgment and the fear of not being understood are common among people-pleasers. - Self-compassion and curiosity are essential in the healing journey to break free from people-pleasing tendencies -It is important to prioritize oneself and ask for help when needed. - The goal is to cultivate authenticity and self-love.
