This week, we’re rethinking another unwritten relationship rule:
“I am responsible for how they think and feel about me.”
This is the underlying thought that leads to people-pleasing. But it also underlies many of our distinctly UNpleasant behaviors, including anger, defensiveness and resentment.
Jenny shares where this belief comes from, why it’s so common (especially among women!) and how it can be problematic. You’ll also come away with tips to notice where it may be showing up in your life.
