People pleasing is more than just being nice – it’s a survival strategy rooted in fear, shame, and the need for approval. This course explores how people-pleasing develops through childhood conditioning, emotional neglect, and the internalised belief that your worth depends on how much you give to others.
Through eight in-depth modules, you’ll examine the psychological roots of people-pleasing, including fear of rejection, the need for validation, and the illusion of control. You’ll learn to identify your own patterns, understand the impact on your health and relationships, and begin the process of setting boundaries – without guilt.
Whether you struggle with saying no, over-explaining your choices, or feeling responsible for others’ emotions, this course offers a roadmap to help you reclaim your voice, your autonomy, and your self-worth.
