Join me, Kayla Reilly, as I share a personal story about how my own people-pleasing tendencies led to poor management decisions that nearly derailed my entrepreneurial journey. We’ll dive into the psychological aspects, focusing on the fawning response that often originates from childhood experiences and how it follows us into our professional lives. This episode uncovers how people-pleasing shows up in business, from overpaying staff to underpaying yourself, and offers a roadmap for understanding and overcoming these self-sabotaging behaviors.
