Do you ever feel like you’re putting everyone else’s needs and opinions above your own? Maybe you feel like you’re constantly seeking validation or bending over backwards for others, while your own well-being suffers.

If part of you resonates with the term “people pleaser” and you wonder why your body image and food struggles seem impossible to shake, listening to this episode will be so powerful for you.

People pleasing isn’t just draining—it might also be silently destroying your self-worth, your boundaries, and even your experience of eating.

Together with Meg McCabe—a certified Eating Disorder Recovery Coach, speaker, educator, and unapologetic food lover—we’re unraveling the sneaky connection between people pleasing, body image, and food issues, and how to reclaim your life from the chaos.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How people pleasing shows up in your relationship with food and body image.

  • Why external validation feels so addictive—and why it’s holding you back.

  • Practical ways to stop neglecting your needs and build authentic self-worth.

  • Strategies to set boundaries without guilt and overcome self-doubt in social situations.
