Dear Chloe and Lex, I’ve always been a people pleaser. Sometimes I wonder if that comes from something ingrained in me or if it was learned. I’ve talked about my not-so-easy childhood with you, so I wonder if trying to make everyone laugh and be the peacekeeper turned me into a people pleaser. Listen up, guys, this is important. Being a kind and empathetic human being is good. Being a people pleaser is bad.
I can so relate to this Sara. There are probably many of us who have struggled with this or are still struggling. Thanks for being transparent. Maybe you could write a story about your visit to my Dad in Friesland and your battle with wc at his house. Lol. That was so funny. Margaret. Xxxx
20 and I'm trying to learn the same thing. I don't need to prove myself to others, I am enough for those who want me as I am. I hate disappointing people but I'm trying to get more comfortable with it - glad we're both learning how to undo our people pleasing mannerisms!
