Does the thought of speaking up in front of others make you second guess yourself, or make you want to hide?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maybe at work, you want to share more of your ideas at meetings.\u00a0Or at home, you wish that you can tell your parents or in-laws to back off! Tell them to stop forcing you to do things you don\u2019t want, or stop telling you how to do things.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But every time you think about speaking up, you freeze. Your chest squeezes you like a vice, your mind screams, \u201cThey\u2019re gonna get so upset!! Don't do it!!\" <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yeah, what if they yell at me, ridicule me or kick me out?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is part of the \u201cPeople-Pleasing Tendencies\u201d we\u2019d picked up since we were young. (Or as my coach calls it, \u201cself-abandoning\u201d tendency)\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re feeling this way, you\u2019re not alone, and nothing is wrong with you.\u00a0You\u2019d just been brought up in a way where you never got a chance to exercise your voice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And now that you want to use it, it feels super uncomfortable and scary.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s why I\u2019ve created 5 videos, \u201cStop People-Pleasing Tendencies\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the first video, I share with you how this tendency developed while growing up.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
