  • Summary

  • Wanting to please others can be a normal part of life, but when does it turn into appeasing others at your own expense? This week, Mory and Melissa return to personal growth by taking a long, hard look at people pleasing. We celebrate compassion as a culture, we speak highly of empathy, and we adore sacrifice - but we usually don’t talk about the times we care for others out of a need to feel safe or valuable. Fawning is just as much a trauma response as ‘fight or flight,’ and like all trauma responses, fawning should be honored and understood for what it is: our imperfect and natural capacity to process difficulty. Tune in for some serious (and not so serious) stories from the front lines of people pleasing, clarity on reconnecting to your own desire, and a convincing argument for why you should get a bean of your own.
