People-pleasing looks like kindness. It feels like keeping the peace. But somewhere underneath all those yeses is a version of you that’s exhausted, resentful, and slowly disappearing. In this episode, we get into why we do it, what it’s actually costing us, and the moment you realise the pattern has been running the show for far longer than you’d like to admit.
