Toward A Better Life PodcastEpisode 79 Creating Authentic RelationshipsWelcome to episode 79 of Toward A Better Life. What do you think of when you hear words to describe a person as cheerful, agreeable, amiable, considerate, cooperative, courteous, easy, or easygoing? They're all compliments or positive qualities on the surface. They also describe people pleasers, those who feel overly-worried with making other people happy and feel the need to gain their approval just to maintain a relationship.
