Many of us were taught that being a “good person” means being available, accommodating, and saying yes whenever someone asks.
But constantly putting yourself last comes at a cost.
Over time, people-pleasing can leave you feeling exhausted, resentful, disconnected from yourself, and unsure of what you actually need.
Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is honour your own needs, even when it disappoints someone else.
If setting boundaries feels difficult, therapy can help.
