Overcome People-Pleasing, Embrace Honest Communication, and Create Balanced Relationships of Confidence and Clarity with Marina Pearson
In this episode I discuss the pervasive issue of people-pleasing from a feminine perspective. First I share with you my perspective that emphasizes on how women are conditioned to prioritize others' needs. My Guest Marina Pearson shares her journey of overcoming people-pleasing, driven by her fear of abandonment in romantic relationships. Marina delves into how these tendencies led to self-abandonment, codependency, and burnout, and how she eventually embraced her true desires and authenticity. We explore relationship dynamics, the importance of expressing one's truth, and how understanding masculine and feminine energies can transform personal connections. Marina provides insights from her books and therapeutic practices, aiming to guide listeners towards healthier, fulfilling relationships.
