Do you question every decision you make? Do you spend hours agonizing over what people will think of you or the actions you take in your business?
Do you replay situations in your mind, lose sleep over how you could have said or done things differently, or worry about disappointing others?
Luckily, today’s guest is an expert on people-pleasing who can help you learn to stop making other people comfortable at your own expense. Introducing Sara Fisk, the Stop People Pleasing Coach and host of the Ex-Good Girl Podcast.
