People pleasing isn’t just about being nice.

It’s a survival strategy wired into the nervous system that can quietly erode self-worth, drain energy, and disconnect us from our own lives.

In this episode Rebecca Hunter, therapist and anxiety expert, unpacks the roots of people pleasing, how it shows up in sneaky ways, and why it’s more than just a “bad habit.” You’ll learn how childhood experiences shape this pattern, how to recognize it in real time, and most importantly, how to begin unlearning it.

If you’re exhausted from always putting everyone else first, this session will show you the path back to authenticity and peace.

Rebecca Hunter, MSW helps empathic high-achievers (like you) stop overthinking, overcome emotional overwhelm, and actually feel better—for real.
