Have you ever called yourself a people-pleaser?
I’m Xena & I am a recovering people-pleaser.
I cared so much about what other people thought of me & would prioritise the needs & desires of my friends, family or colleagues, above my own.
And by doing this I was telling myself that my needs & what I wanted weren’t as important... Further adding to my insecurities & lack of self-worth.
Overtime I became a chameleon - I didn’t know who I was or what I really liked because I was always going along with everyone else.
People pleasing is a pattern of thinking & doing things that prioritise what other people think over what we think - Sacrificing pleasing yourself in order to please others.
In this episode you'll learn:
Why ADHDers people please
How this pattern of behaviour impacts our ADHD symptoms
How we've got the idea of "people pleasing" all wrong
