The People Pleaser Shadow
Your shadow lives in the erasure of your own needs.
Your shadow is organized around others' comfort at the expense of your own. The people-pleasing was a survival strategy — if I keep everyone happy, I'll be safe. But the self that was silenced to make that deal is still waiting.
What this means
People pleasing is not kindness. It is self-abandonment dressed as generosity.
The shadow of the people pleaser holds everything you want to say, be, and need — but haven't allowed yourself.
The work is learning that your worth is not contingent on anyone else's approval.
