Description
Does it sometimes feel like you live in someone else's skin?
Are you afraid to let go of relationships that make you feel anxious, depressed, and sad for fear of feelings such as anger or loneliness?
You do all you can to fix other people's problems with everything you have - whether it's with resources, money, or time - just because you don't want to lose them.
You hardly ever say 'no' to the people around you in order to avoid feeling guilty. You've sacrificed yourself and come to your friends' rescue over and over again.
This isn't unusual... but it could mean you're codependent.
Your empathy and intuition as a people-pleaser make you more insightful, understanding, and compassionate... But it could also make you vulnerable to abuse.
When you become deeply concerned about others' feelings, you tend to feel responsible for their well-being and happiness - at the detriment of your own.
You put their life first and can't say 'no' to anything that doesn't please them.
At worst, this can land you in a toxic relationship that leaves you feeling exhausted and stressed.
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.
This sympathetic guidebook was especially written for you - someone who often has difficulty saying 'no' and easily gets hurt by their own empathy.
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

And much more.

What's important is setting reasonable boundaries so that you don't lose yourself in the process.
It's time to stop trying so hard. Instead, make your relationships more rewarding and fulfilling by discovering how to be yourself.
