Stop Trying To Fix Your People-pleasing And Do This Instead: Discover Who You Are Beyond It

Stop Trying To Fix Your People-pleasing And Do This Instead: Discover Who You Are Beyond It

Most of us are trying to fix people-pleasing by having boundaries, loving ourselves more, or simply will-powering ourselves to “not do it again.”
 
Then we end up relapsing, leaving us feeling burned out, frustrated, discouraged and seeking yet another solution.

What you *actually* need is to discover who you are without that identity, and when you do, you won’t need people-pleasing.

This is what I help you discover in six short weeks in People-pleasing Transformed

Is This Your Life?

Is This Your Life?

  • You frequently fixate and worry over what other people think about you
  • You find yourself really frustrated that you can’t keep your boundaries
  • You wonder why sometimes it’s like you just can’t say no when you want to
  • You struggle to know and feel your worth when others are upset with you
  • You get flooded with anxiety and fear when others are disappointed, upset, or frustrated with you
  • The discomfort of upsetting someone overwhelm you
  • Often find yourself seeking your value and worth through approval of others
  • You dread rejection and trying to avoid it at all costs even when it leaves you feeling unwanted, unimportant, frustrated, or anxious
  • You often feel lost, lonely, and not belonging in life

This Is Your People-Pleasing Identity In Action

This Is Your People-Pleasing Identity In Action​

People-pleasing has been your best strategy (so far!) to feel safe, worthy, and loved. It is how you learned to navigate the chaotic and unreliable nature of the relationships you had growing up and in your adult life.

This happened because you were not properly loved and nurtured into trusting yourself and valuing yourself – NOT because you’re flawed.

Further, leaving people-pleasing behind can cause big anxiety, fear, and a sense of being lost.  This is why it has such a firm grip on your life.

And That Grip Is Causing Your...

  • Fear and avoidance of your desires and dreams

You Might Be Thinking, "But I've Already Tried Other Things And They've Not Worked, Marshall..."

You Might Be Thinking, "But I've Already Tried Other Things And They've Not Worked, Marshall..."

And if you are, you’re in the right place.

I doubted I could heal and thrive.

I had done the therapy, taken courses, and watched countless YouTube videos and done so many meditations.

Nothing worked until I understood this:

You see, people-pleasing is viewed as an identity. “I am a people-pleaser”. 

But in reality, it is an *expression* of a biological reflex in your body called “Fawning”.

Fawning is part of the flight, fight, and freeze reflexes bodies have when there’s danger showing up.

Fawning is chosen when the body doesn’t feel that running away or fighting will stop the threat.

This is often because the body feels dependent on the threat (the other person, the partner, the parent, the community) for their sense of survival and well-being, so it chooses to try to please and appease the threat so it won’t reject or harm it anymore.

Fawning stops when the body feels safe enough to risk those connections.

When this clicked, I saw what I needed to develop:  Enough safety within myself to disappoint others.

Feel safe enough to disappoint others and you are FREE.

People-Pleasing Ends When You Know Who You Are Beyond It

People-Pleasing Ends When You Know Who You Are Beyond It

People-pleasing is activated when:
 
  • You sense your worth is in danger because you depend on approval to know you are ok to be yourself
  • You sense that your belonging is at risk because you want to say no or have a boundary, but do not trust they’ll value and keep you
  • You feel a sense of danger in being different from what they expect or desire
 

This impulse stops instantly when you:

  • Know and feel your real worth and trust it
  • You are willing to find out the truth of a connection by rocking the boat
  • You feel safe enough to be alone so you can find the right people for you
  • YOU KNOW YOUR TRUE SELF AND EMBODY IT

ABOUT MARSHALL

ABOUT MARSHALL​

Hi, I’m Marshall. I Was Hopelessly Codependent.

I spent over 10 years seeking a solution that would set me free from anxiety, shame, and self-doubt, that would teach me how to love myself, and would help me build connection and belonging in my life.
 
I’ve also worked with over 1000 codependents and found the recipe that unlocks liberation and peace after decades of codependency.  You, I, and them all faced the same aggravating, heart-breaking cycle of getting our hopes up, having aha’s!, only to find ourselves relapsing in our codependent survival behaviors.
 
This ends when you have the right knowledge, practices, support in the right order.  Join my work and discover this for yourself.

COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED

COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED

question mark

HOW DO I KNOW THIS IS THE RIGHT COURSE FOR ME?

Ask yourself this question and listen to you body’s response: “Will this course get me where I want to be?”

If you find yourself heavy and confused, then your answer is no.

If you find yourself light, expansive, and clear, then your body’s answer is yes.

That answer is what I call your “intuitive answer”.

Trust your inner guidance.

question mark

WHAT IF I GET STUCK OR GO SLOWLY?

This is anticipated in the design of all my courses.  You see, this course is teaching you new practices and a new lifestyle.  It will take time to adopt, explore, and experience what you learn.

You can go at your pace and you’ll always have support and guidance along the way.
