Episode 117 - The Enneagram for People Pleasers Part 2 with Wendy Montgomery
Send us a text So many women blame themselves for their people-pleasing tendencies–I can’t speak up, I apologize too much, I have to avoid conflict at all costs…
Today, I’m back with part two of my conversation with Enneagram coach Wendy Montgomery. In part one, we explored the nine Enneagram types and how people-pleasing can show up for each one. Now, we’re diving into what healing these habits looks like for each type and how the Enneagram can act as a guide for transformation. Here’s what we cover:
Why self-awareness is key to reducing people-pleasing tendencies
A type-by-type analysis of how the shift away from people pleasing can happen
Why healing is a journey, not an arrival–even with the help of the Enneagram
How to offer yourself grace and compassion when overcoming people-pleasing
A healing message for each Enneagram type

Episode 115 - "Dying for Sex" with Danielle Savory
Send us a text So many women blame themselves for their people-pleasing tendencies–I can’t speak up, I apologize too much, I have to avoid conflict at all costs…
So many women are not experiencing the sex, orgasms, and intimacy they genuinely want. Often, they blame themselves for this or settle for the belief that “this is just as good as it gets.” But it doesn’t have to be that way. I’m so excited to welcome back master certified coach, podcast host, and sexual pleasure and intimacy expert Danielle Savory. In this episode, we dive into the powerful themes of the newly released series "Dying for Sex" and explore the larger conversation about the self-intimacy and vulnerability that is required for women to understand and advocate for their sexual wants and needs. Here’s what we cover:
The harmful cultural narratives that continue to shape women’s experiences of sexuality
How developing intimacy with yourself helps you overcome obstacles to pleasure
Why our healing and exploration thrive in the presence of other women
How to open up a conversation around sexuality with a friend
The role of the body and nervous system in cultivating openness and curiosity around pleasure
Practical starting points for women ready to explore their sexual desire
I can't wait for you to listen!

Episode 114 - Being Bullied and Becoming a People Pleaser
Send us a text So many women blame themselves for their people-pleasing tendencies–I can’t speak up, I apologize too much, I have to avoid conflict at all costs…
Many women who struggle with people-pleasing often blame themselves, but these habits are usually rooted in deeper issues that are beyond our control. There can be various underlying causes, but in this episode, I share how my personal experiences with bullying have influenced my people-pleasing tendencies. If recalling your own experiences of being bullied brings up strong emotions--it’s okay to skip this episode if it feels too tender. But if you’re ready, I invite you to explore how these early wounds may have influenced your people-pleasing—and how healing starts with self-compassion, not self-criticism. Here’s what I cover:
An overview of the four nervous system responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn
A deep dive into the “fawn” nervous system response and how it connects bullying to people-pleasing
How bullying-related shame impacts our sense of worthiness
A visualization exercise that uses arts work to help you heal your inner child
Why being attuned to others’ needs might actually be a trauma response
A compassionate question to ask yourself that will reveal the beliefs you formed about safety and belonging
