The Cost of Keeping the Peace: What's Beyond People-Pleasing

Do you find yourself saying "yes" when you want to say "no"? Or softening your words to avoid tension? In this episode, we uncover how people-pleasing quietly sabotages your voice, your confidence, and your authentic communication. You'll learn how to move beyond the habit of keeping the peace and step into grounded, honest expression—even in high-stakes moments. You'll learn: Before: How to prepare mentally and emotionally before a big conversation so you don't default to pleasing.
