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.✨
