Raising your awareness about self-care or self-soothing is going to help you make better choices for yourself. Ones that support your vision of…
So how do ‘people pleasers’ say no? Well as someone who knows very well she is a recovering (and still very much working at it) people pleaser, I can tell you simply…we don’t. Full stop.
