Has people pleasing become second nature?
Maybe your default response when someone asks for your help is, “Sure, I can help you with that!” Or maybe your style of boundary setting is overly rigid, and you say “No” without considering the benefits of saying “Yes.”
In either case, your snap decision to say yes or no is your way of protecting yourself. Your boundaries have become fear-based because of what you experienced in childhood and now you are trying to
prevent rejection, judgment, disappointment – or from letting others get too close to you.
It’s exhausting to over-give and to under-receive and it’s time to change that. This course can help.
In this course you will:
-
Identify when you need to set a boundary by noticing emotional and physical cues (e.g., irritation, burnout, resentment).
-
Reflect on how your family history shaped your current boundary style.
-
Explore how poor boundaries lead to loss of peace, over-giving, or unhealthy relationships.
-
Recognize codependent patterns and how they reinforce self-sacrifice.
