Every time we betray our true self in order to please someone else, we abandon a small part of us. Every time we say “yes” when we really mean “no,” or ignore our own needs, or cling to an unhealthy relationship for fear of hurting their feelings, we give up another small part of our authentic self.

Slowly, those small parts add up to a gaping hole that can irreparably damage our relationships with others and ourselves. So today, we’re talking about noticing the signs of self-abandonment and how to confidently balance the healthy compromises (required for relationships to work) while showing up in the world as nothing but your most authentic, genuine self.

In this episode, we’re talking about:

  • How to effectively compromise, without self-betrayal
  • How people pleasing leads to self-abandonment
  • The importance of setting boundaries
  • Conscious incompetence
  • Building self worth and appreciating yourself
  • The dangerous cycle of people pleasing and self-abandonment
  • The attractiveness of integrity and authenticity
