On today's show, the topic is approval addiction, the disease to please others. I want to discuss how people-pleasing can lead to approval addictions that can negatively impact one's personal and professional life.

By understanding the harmful effects of people pleasing, individuals can learn to set healthy boundaries and prioritize their own needs.

Here are the three steps to Overcoming Approval Addictions:

1. Identify and challenge your people-pleasing behaviors: Practice saying "no" to requests or demands that don't feel right, and set boundaries to protect your time and energy.
2. Learn to tolerate discomfort: Overcoming people-pleasing often involves accepting uncomfortable feelings such as guilt, fear, and anxiety. Practice self-care to help you manage stress and anxiety.
3. Develop self-compassion and self-acceptance:

I encourage my fabulous listeners and inner circle community to start your journey towards self-acceptance and self-love.

I want to leave you with this message:

"Do things for you, not for the approval or satisfaction of others. You'll attract the people who matter."
