Break Free from People Pleasing & Reconnect with Your Worthiness

Jan 30, 2025
I have a must-listen episode of the This Mother Means Business podcast to share with you today—and it’s one that speaks to the heart of personal growth, breaking free from people pleasing, and rediscovering your worthiness.
 
In this episode, I sit down with Amy Ballantyne, an executive life coach and TEDx speaker, to dive into the powerful journey of recognizing your worth and shedding the habit of constantly seeking approval. Amy shares her personal experiences and the strategies she uses to help others, especially women, break free from the cycle of people pleasing.
 
We explore:
✨ How people pleasing often starts in childhood and can follow us into adulthood
✨ The importance of recognizing when our actions lead to resentment
✨ Practical steps to reconnect with our self-worth (including a fun reminder strategy using temporary tattoos!)
✨ Why it’s crucial for moms to prioritize their own needs and passions, and empower their daughters to do the same
 
Amy and I dive deep into how personal growth is not just about us—it’s about setting an example for the next generation, especially our daughters, to understand that pursuing their passions and dreams is what matters most.
 
 
You’ll walk away with strategies to start reconnecting with your worth today. Whether it’s awareness, setting boundaries, or simply reminding yourself of your value, you’ll gain insight into how you can stop people pleasing and start putting yourself first without guilt.
 
As always, I want to remind you that this journey of growth is ongoing. So, if you're ready to break free from those old patterns, let’s do it together.
 
Don’t forget—asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. 💪
