In this compelling episode, Madeleine delves into the intricacies of people-pleasing as a response to trauma. Often manifesting as anxiety, guilt, burnout, and depression, people-pleasing can become a deeply ingrained habit. Madeleine explains that trauma encompasses anything that obstructs our full expansion and expression. During moments of humiliation or fear, our nervous system may shut down, leading to numbing and disconnection. She discusses the 'fawn response,' where individuals prioritize others' needs over their own, losing touch with their true selves. Madeleine reassures listeners that people-pleasing doesn't define them and that they're not alone in this experience. She encourages introspection with the question, "What will happen if I stop people-pleasing?" Join us to explore ways to break free from this pattern and reclaim your authentic self.
