Ep 10: Overcoming Childhood People-Pleasing & Parental Expectations: A Conversation with Glynn Couch

"People pleasing is lack of boundaries with ourselves. When you change that, you feel like you're shifting the whole lay of the land." - Glynn Couch

In this episode of Diary of a Recovering People Pleaser , Jenny has an in depth conversation with Glynn Couch, a licensed clinical social worker (and Jenny’s former therapist!). They discuss a variety of people pleasing aspects, including the heaviness of managing others' emotions, the importance of setting boundaries as well as the true purpose of boundaries in relationships.

Glynn opens up about her personal journey, sharing poignant memories from her college years and how trying to avoid saying no out of fear of disappointing others forced her to confront her fears. She also talks about how people pleasing shows up in her life, especially in relation to seeking approval and guidance from her father. She offers up actionable advice on starting small and building the confidence to prioritize your own needs without feeling selfish.

Additionally, they explore Glynn's own recent experiences with ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and how it can aid in reshaping thought patterns for people pleasers. Glynn now offers ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and is accepting new clients. The last portion of the podcast is dedicated to explaining what it is, what to expect, and why it might be the missing piece to your healing puzzle!
