Episode 170 - The People-Pleasing Conversation I Had With My Teenager

Episode 170 - The People-Pleasing Conversation I Had With My Teenager

People-pleasing tendencies start much earlier in life than many of us realize, and there comes a point when children need to begin unlearning those behaviors so they don't carry them into adulthood. Inspired by a conversation I recently had with my 16-year-old son, I’m breaking down people-pleasing in a way that teens can understand and showing how the same tools I use with my coaching clients can help younger generations too. Learning to recognize these patterns and find your voice early is such a gift. Whether you're sharing this episode with a teen in your life or using these concepts to help guide and encourage them, I hope this episode gives you both more confidence to start speaking up. Here’s what I cover:

  • The conversation that inspired this episode and why so many teens struggle to speak up
  • Why people pleasing begins in childhood as a survival strategy before it starts holding us back
  • The difference between the discomfort of staying stuck and the discomfort that comes with growth
  • Why people pleasing can actually damage the relationships you're trying to protect
  • Three steps to help your teen practice speaking up and build confidence one conversation at a time
