When People Pleasing Is Costing You Too Much with Amanda Baudier

(Episode #363) How much of yourself are you editing to stay likable?

This week, Zoey is joined by spiritual teacher and wise woman Amanda Baudier. After two decades helping build businesses like Sakara Life and Melissa Wood Health, Amanda knows what it feels like to keep proving yourself. She also knows the freedom of finally letting people have their opinions while you get on with being who you came here to be.

Zoey shares the beliefs about aging that came knocking at 35, opening up a conversation about why we put expiration dates on our dreams in the first place. Amanda’s invitation to “dream slower” feels especially good if you’ve been chasing your calling with one eye on everyone else’s timeline. Together, they get honest about people pleasing and the shame that can keep us quiet, including what it means to trust ourselves enough to speak when the conversation is uncomfortable. There’s room to want more from your life without spending the whole thing trying to prove you’re enough.
