This episode is inspired by Hailey Magee's new book Stop People Pleasing and Find Your Power, as well as the "People Pleaser Support Group" skit on SNL. We discuss why people pleasing in the bedroom is different than other forms of people pleasing, why someone would say yes when they mean maybe or no, the common consequences of sexual people pleasing, as well as some tools to to stop people pleasing here and now. We also discuss why working on your relationship with rejection and disappointment is key on your journey towards embracing your inner power and not getting so stuck again.
