Are you a chronic people pleaser?
Are you a chronic people pleaser? I used to be (and still can be if I am not paying attention)! If you are not sure: Do you say yes to everyone else, and no to yourself? Do you put everyone else’s needs ahead of your own? Do you do things hoping that other people will […]
