Struggling to say 'no' and feeling burnt out? You're not alone. On the latest episode of Codependent Doctor, I, Dr. Angela Downey, get candid about the tightrope walk between kindness and compulsion. We take a look at why 'yes' might not always be the golden word and how our ancestral need for acceptance can morph into a modern-day trap of people-pleasing. With humor and vulnerability, I share tales from my own life, including a childhood sleepover fiasco, to illustrate the sometimes-hilarious lengths we go to for approval.
Join me as we navigate the challenging path to setting boundaries and recognizing our own worth, especially in high-stress fields like medicine. Hear how the relentless pursuit of pleasing others can spiral into burnout, impacting not just professional but personal lives as well. This episode isn't just about identifying the problem; it's about taking steps to reclaim your life. So, let's embark on this journey together, shedding the weight of constant accommodation, and moving towards a more authentic and satisfying existence.
