Ever found yourself wondering where the line between 'you and me' truly lies? Is a people-pleaser just another word for being โniceโ?
Join Liz and Michelle as they unravel the intricate world of boundaries, opinions, and self-worth in mid-life with the incredible Michelle Elman, a renowned life coach and author. Michelle delves deep into the art of setting boundaries, challenging the belief that self-worth hinges on others' opinions, and revealing the power of embracing discomfort for personal growth.
Key Insights:
๐๏ธ The Self-Esteem & People Pleasing: "Even as a people pleaser, remember, not everyone will approve. When you prioritize others' opinions over your own, it often stems from lacking self-esteem."
๐๏ธ Defining Boundaries: "Think of boundaries as the line between 'you and me,' defining acceptable treatment. It's crucial, especially for women taught to prioritize others over themselves."
๐๏ธ Embracing Discomfort: "Setting boundaries isn't about eliminating discomfort or guilt. It's a process. The first time is hardest, but with a clear 'why,' it gets easier. Losing those who resist your boundaries reveals who truly belongs in your life."
๐๏ธ Nurturing Spousal Relationships: "Explore the importance of open communication and the establishment of clear expectations in spousal relationships to navigate change."
