Are your health habits taking a backseat to your people-pleasing tendencies?
Break free from the cycle with me, Elizabeth Sherman, as I tackle the subtle ways saying 'yes' too often can negatively impact your well-being. As I share my personal experiences and professional insights, I shed light on the often-overlooked connection between people-pleasing behaviors and personal health choices.
From the family table where we silence our dietary preferences to the workplace, where we overcommit at the cost of our exercise routines, we explore the ramifications of not voicing our needs. Join me to learn how to set boundaries and choose self-care without an ounce of guilt.
This episode is a heart-to-heart for anyone, particularly women in midlife, who feels the tug-of-war between caring for others and caring for oneself. As we navigate the complex landscape of hormonal changes, energy management, and food choices, we underscore the importance of self-respect and self-compassion during this transformative time.
I dive into personal growth, boundary setting, and ways to infuse joy into your daily life. It's more than a conversation; it's a movement towards living authentically and prioritizing your health and happiness. So, tune in and take the first step towards reclaiming the life you deserve.
People pleasing impacts health habits, but prioritizing self-care is necessary for lasting change and empowerment.
People-pleasing can harm our health goals by neglecting our needs and prioritizing others, leading to resentment and imbalance.
Childhood people-pleasing can lead to self-abandonment, but self-care and boundaries can reclaim self-worth, especially for women in midlife.
