How to Break the Cycle of People-Pleasing with Suzanne Culberg

How to Break the Cycle of People-Pleasing with Mindset Coach Suzanne Culberg

On this episode of Calmly Coping, I spoke with Suzanne Culberg about how to break the cycle of people-pleasing.

Suzanne is an international mindset coach, speaker and author, who helps over-givers and people-pleasers learn to say ‘No’ to others in a way that feels good, so that they can say ‘Yes’ to themselves. Through her signature online program “Why W8?” Suzanne has helped hundreds of women break the cycle of putting themselves last and instead build the confidence to set boundaries.

In this conversation, Suzanne shares why boundaries are crucial for managing anxiety, how to establish them without feeling selfish, and why worrying about others’ opinions can hold us back. Get ready for an empowering and insightful discussion with Suzanne Culberg.

In this episode, we discussed:

  • Why people-pleasers struggle to say no
  • The two parts to saying no: 1) worrying about affecting relationships, and 2) not doing things for ourselves due to concerns about others
  • The people-pleasing cycle and how to break it
  • How over-giving to others is also over-consuming
  • The two parts of setting boundaries: saying no to others and saying no to ourselves
  • The importance of setting boundaries that work for both parties involved
  • The “explosive doormat” metaphor and the dangers of constantly saying yes
