So many people I speak with are people pleasers. And so many of the reasons why we are people pleasers are due to training and conditioning. And caring for people.

When you care for people, you don't want to see them hurt right? But that instinct is utilized inappropriately when we then use it as the reason to not inconvenience or disappoint someone.

Think about when you were growing up, did your parents say I'm not mad I'm just disappointed? Well meaning or not, that phrase haunts many people now in their adulthood because disappointing someone lasts longer and hurts more than making them mad.

But it is so important that you understand this simple fact, disappointing someone is not the same as harming them. And anyone who tries to make you think that it is is not trying to help you, they are trying to help themselves.

Religious deconstruction is a lengthy process. It can be super complicated, sure, but it is so worth the work.

For me, music has always been a touchstone. When I didn't have words or wasn't sure which of those to use, some of these songs went on repeat on my playlists. At different times they have meant different things, but they have all been instrumental to my healing and evolving.

Religious trauma is exceptionally prevalent among the q***r community. I work everyday with people who are at different stages of this deconstruction process. Maybe some of these songs will help you, maybe you have your own songs that have helped. If you have songs that have helped drop them below I'd love to check them out.

The fact is there are so many more things that I just do not care about as a therapist even though social media and probably social convention thinks that I should.

But these seem to be the ones that come up the most often so I thought I'd dress them here. What things do you hope your therapist doesn't care about? If you are a therapist what are some things you don't care about even though people think you should or think you do?

Leave a comment, Id love to hear it!

Oh hey people pleasers 👋🏽

Can we talk about this? Your need to keep peace is not helping you or the people around you. And sorry to say that, as someone who enjoys peace themselves. But your peace is yours to keep and their peace is theirs. So how do you extricate yourself from this?

It's important to remember that peace looks different for everyone. And it's important to remember that your piece is just as important as everyone else is. Just as, not more or less important.

Do you think that it's possible to stop prioritizing everyone else over yourself? It's a long road but it is doable.

If you're looking for help in doing this, I have a few openings for clients happening before the end of the year. Interested in working with me? Let's talk! Comment here, DM me, or check out my link in bio

Showing up for your partner isn't inherently hard, but why do so many people have such a hard time with it?
I often see people TRYING to show up for their partners but not having any idea why their attempts are not being seen. And then I also hear from your partners that they wish their needs were more attended to

Usually this is not a situation where people don't want to fix things, they just don't know how. So this tip is one that I give a lot of my couples and come to me for a therapy and I'm giving it to you for free. Make this part of your regular interaction together and your ability to show up for one another will increase tenfold.

What are some other ways that you have learned to be able to show up for your partner? Drop them in the comments section so we can all learn from one another

Here's hoping I don't regret posting this. Though I don't know which I'd regret more, a lot of interactions on this or not many at all.

Do you ever feel like you're inside thoughts are so much louder than you expected them to be? Or that things in your life, well good, seems so temporary?

I don't know how many of you can resonate with some of these thoughts. But I have to believe that with a number of people in helping professions I have on this page, some of these must be familiar to someone else.

So how about it? Am I alone in these?
