do you notice yourself agreeing with others for the sake of agreeing? struggle to say no to others? constantly apologise for things? ... if you're saying yes then this episode is for you!!

 in this solo episode, i (cara) sit down and share some of my personal experiences with 'people pleasing' and discuss the following topics and questions:

• what people pleasing actually is and what does it look like?
• how people pleasing and seeking external validation are interconnected 
• is seeking external validation always a bad thing? 
• what are the reasons why some of us people please? 
• how people pleasing can actually hinder relationships + foster a loss of authentic self 
• how to break this pattern of thinking and learn to take up space 

just a reminder that your voice matters, you are worthy, and you deserve to take space <3
