Letting Go of the People Pleasing Pattern!

My friend,

One of the biggest lessons I had to learn in life was the lesson of releasing the need to be liked by everyone.

As a recovering people pleasure, I always found myself allowing others to dictate my self-worth by me believing what they thought about me was always true.

Can you imagine how challenging it can be to put your happiness in the hands of what others think about you? Yikes!! If you are someone struggling with feeling confident and having a sense of high self-worth, it's time to let that go. It just doesn't have to be that way anymore.

I decided early on in my life that things like gossip and criticism would have no room in my world, and things like love, compassion generosity, and kindness would take center stage instead. I realized that I had to be all these things for myself first, and then from that space... I could begin to support others in the same way.

We live in a society where we are told 'criticism' is needed in order to create thicker skin, however it actually has us creating armor between ourselves and the world, which prevents us from being open to receiving the full blessings life truly has to offer us. This holds us back from ultimately being free.

Let's choose to be free by fully giving ourselves permission to release the need to be liked by everyone, and instead begin to like ourselves first. Imagine the kind of reality we will create when this happens.

Love always,
