Most of us have gotten at least a little emotional at some point recently. It’s natural. But why do we have emotions and how much should we pay attention to them on any given day? Can we learn to skillfully choose which emotions to listen to and which ones to just let move on by? In More Than A Feeling, the latest podcast from Ten Percent Happier, host Saleem Reshamwala goes on a real life quest to find the answers to these questions. He’ll experiment with neuroscientists, dive into stories ...

People Pleasing & ADHD: When "Yes" is a Nervous-System Response and How to Stop with Anita Sandoval, LPC - EP 555
Manage episode 499496006 series 3563039
Content provided by Eric Tivers, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP, Eric Tivers, and LCSW. All podcast content including episodes, graphics, and podcast descriptions are uploaded and provided directly by Eric Tivers, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP, Eric Tivers, and LCSW or their podcast platform partner.

People-pleasing isn't a personality flaw—often it's a nervous-system strategy. Licensed Professional Counselor and ADHD-CCSP Anita Sandoval joins Eric to unpack how the fawn response shows up with ADHD, trauma, and RSD; how it differs from masking and conflict avoidance; and what real change looks like. We cover Anita's "Empower → Resilient → Authentic" model, ADHD-friendly EMDR adaptations, and the messy-but-worth-it work of boundaries (including with narcissistic family dynamics). Resources, Anita's links, and a quick survey about a potential evening coaching group are in the full notes at ADHDreWired.com.
Guest: Anita Sandoval, LPC-S, EMDR-Certified, ADHD-CCSP — therapist, supervisor, and author of Broken Chains (English & Spanish). Host of Empowering Women in Conversations and creator of Empower Her Pathways.
We cover:
People-pleasing as a neuro-adaptive response (fight/flight/freeze/fawn)
People-pleasing vs. conflict avoidance vs. masking
ADHD & RSD: why "neutral" feedback stings and how regulation shifts it
Differentiating from personality disorders (dependent/BPD)
Hypervigilance, ACEs, and emotional regulation circuits
Boundaries with narcissistic dynamics (including the "victim narcissist" pattern)
Anita's staged model (Stages of Change × grief work): Unaware → Aware → Ready → Action → Maintenance → Integration (Empowered → Resilient → Authentic)
Therapies that help ADHD brains: EMDR with resourcing, IFS/parts work, polyvagal-informed regulation
Eric's EMDR story: from trigger spirals to co-regulation
Try this: Notice your next automatic "yes." Ask: Is this aligned with my values, or is my nervous system chasing safety? Then practice one tiny boundary this week and track before/during/after.
Resources mentioned:
Anita Sandoval — anitasandoval.com (course: Empower Her Pathways)
Broken Chains (English/Spanish)
Dr. Ramani's work on narcissism (Should I Stay or Should I Go?)
Modalities: EMDR, IFS/Parts, Polyvagal-informed approaches
