How to Stop People-Pleasing and Start Honoring Yourself
Why We People-Please
People-pleasing often begins as protection — a way to avoid rejection or conflict. But over time, it can leave you disconnected from your own needs.
Therapy helps you understand where this pattern began and how to replace it with self-trust and clear boundaries.
How to Start Honoring Yourself
Pause before saying yes. Ask yourself: Do I want to do this?
Start small. Practice saying no gently but firmly.
Recognize guilt as growth. Discomfort often means change is happening.
You deserve relationships that value you — not just your compliance.
