About this listen

Tired of being a people-pleaser? Prepare to reclaim your time, energy, and life.

It can be difficult to say "no" when a loved one is asking something from you, or trying to push their agenda onto you. But you don't have to live under their mercy for the rest of your life. You have the power to turn things around.

With the hacks and tools in this guidebook, you will discover how to become your true self and not water down your personality for anyone else’s benefit. Inside, you’ll discover:

  • How to say "no" and mean it without feeling guilty.
  • The key behaviors to watch out for in yourself so that you can avoid relationships or actions that might trigger those pesky habits again.
  • Clear approaches to help you rediscover who you are while breaking free from your need to seek validation from others.
  • Essential self-care practices to help you prioritize your own needs and take charge of your emotions.
  • How knowing yourself and your value can help you set boundaries and act when others cross them.
  • How to recover from a codependent relationship and take charge of your life again.
  • How to build your confidence by surrounding yourself with the right people, practicing self-compassion, and accepting the reality of failure.

And much more!

You don't have to change who you are or stop supporting others–it’s perfectly possible to accommodate their needs while still keeping your own priorities at heart.

What's important is setting reasonable boundaries so that you don't lose yourself in the process.

Discover how you can stop being a victim of manipulation, and get ready to take charge of your life.

I absolutely appreciate the author's thoughtful approach to helping individuals set boundaries and develop the mindset/personality to stop 'people pleasing.' This book has taught me that it's okay to say no (without explaining) or feeling a tremendous amount of guilt about it.

It's also a practical guide that will help you cultivate essential self-care routines that will help build your confidence and allow you to speak up for yourself and do what you truly desire. It opened my eyes to how those closest to you (namely family members) tend to guilt-trip you by sheer manipulation. The book provides the tools and valuable resources to help you overcome these feelings head-on. If you struggle with people-pleasing, this book will help you set boundaries and take the right steps to finally say 'no.' I highly recommend it!

Excellent Book To Help You Stop People Pleasing!

My friend is a people pleaser and he can feel super guilty, and often, when he forces himself to choose to do what he wants. He's getting better, but still needs some help and this audiobook is perfect. He's already said it made him stand up for himself once this week. Would recommend.

Great guide

Recently I had been looking for a book on this specific topic, and this one fell into my lap! Are you a people pleaser, did not disappoint! Freddie obviously knows what he is talking about and has done his research. Probably my favorite part was the FQA at the end!!

I didn't realise this was what was going on with my friend until I listened to this audiobook. She never says no to any request and she ends up being unhappy and completely stressed out and she just can't help herself. As it was rightly said in this book, it is an addiction, a lack of assertiveness and trying to get validation from others before you can live your life. I will be sending the link for this book to her so she can get a copy for herself.

This book walks us through the behaviours to watch out for in yourself, how to discover who you are, how to say no without guilt, how to set boundaries, and how to surround yourself with the right people and build your confidence. It's a blessing to have a big heart but a curse to not take care of it. I can definitely recommend this book.

I have always been a people pleaser and I know it, my fear of keeping everything cool has let me to resent every girlfriend I have had. I started to understand through epictetus that it all comes from caring too much about what other people think and I want to be liked. This book not only gave some of the psychological reasons for people pleasing (it rang eriely true) but some excellent techniques to unlearn what you have learned step by step.

Wow I didn't expect this book to know me so well

I am definitely not a people pleaser, but my mom is. Of course it's a lot harder for women to say no and it be an acceptable answer. If you do something, you are a door mat. If you don't, you're selfish...or worse. There is no winning. I will be sending this audible to my mom to listen to.

Well, the verdict is in!

I picked up this book because it seemed fascinating for me to see who I am, and I was eager to know what it is inside the book. What information I can get from this book? I was not wrong; this book is everything you need to know about people pleaser. In Chapter 2, it will explain if you are people pleaser or not. If you love your friend more than they love you, then you are a people pleaser.
There is more useful information you would find it in the book, I would certainly recommend it.

Highly recommend it!
