6 Steps to Break Free – The PLEASE Method

Stop teaching people to undervalue you and your time.

6 steps to break the cycle 👇🏼

People-pleasing isn’t just exhausting (speaking from MANY years of hard-won experience here 😉).

It’s sabotaging your success, draining your energy, and teaching others to undervalue your time.

Here’s what actually works:

👉🏼 PAUSE before answering requests
↳ “Let me check my calendar” buys you 24 hrs to decide what YOU actually want

👉🏼 LISTEN to your body’s signals
↳ That instant heaviness in your chest is your internal wisdom saying no

👉🏼 EXPLORE your real motivation
↳ Ask “Am I doing this to be helpful or to be liked?” The *honest* answer may surprise you.

👉🏼 ASSERT simple boundary statements
↳ “That doesn’t work for me” is a complete sentence that requires no justification

👉🏼 START with low-risk practice
↳ Say no to the shop keeper’s upsell before tackling your boss’s request

👉🏼 EXPECT discomfort as victory
↳ The 90 sec flush of anxiety when setting boundaries is growth happening

Boundaries aren’t barriers.
They’re bridges to the life you’re actually meant to live.✨

Which step will you implement first today?
