I used to be a people pleaser, always putting others before myself, especially with my family and in romantic relationships. I would say yes to things I didn’t want to do, just to make others happy. But by the end of the day, I felt exhausted, sad, and wondered why I was never enough. It didn’t matter how much I did; I still felt empty and unappreciated.
One day, I stumbled across a random YouTube video, and something clicked. I realized that my happiness was tied to how happy I made others. This revelation opened my eyes to the cycle I was trapped in, and I knew I had to make a change. In this blog post, I’ll explore the causes and effects of people-pleasing and share how I finally broke free from it.

Growing up, I always felt like I was living in the shadows of other people’s expectations. Whether it was my parents, teachers, or peers, it seemed like everyone had an opinion on who I should be and what I should do. I found myself constantly striving to meet these standards, desperately seeking validation from others. But no matter how hard I tried, it never felt like enough.
Then, after being on self growth journey. I realized that no matter how hard I try to meet others expectations, still there will be some dissatisfaction left. I made a conscious decision to break free from the chains of people-pleasing and get my own path. It wasn’t easy; there were moments of doubt and fear. But with each step I took towards embracing my true self, I felt a sense of liberation wash over me and people still talk sh*t about it but now who cares.
Now, I want to share my journey with you. In this guide, I’ll reveal the secrets to mastering the art of not caring what others think.
