If you’ve ever said “yes” when deep down you knew you wanted to say “no”, this episode is for you.
Tracey and Scott unpack the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways people pleasing shows up, why it’s so hard to break, and the real cost it takes on your energy, health, and self-trust.
In this episode, we explore:
- The childhood conditioning that wires us to be “the nice one”
- Why people pleasing often masquerades as kindness
- The physical and emotional toll of saying yes when you mean no
- Tracey’s personal turning point in recognising her own people pleasing patterns
- How resentment quietly builds when we ignore our own needs
- Practical steps to begin setting boundaries without the guilt
If you’re ready to start honouring your own needs without feeling like a bad person, this conversation will give you both the insight and the encouragement to take that first step.
