Summary

End the People-Pleasing Cycle: 3 Tips That Actually Work Kwame Christian sits down with life coach and hypnotherapist Amy Green Smith to unpack the hidden costs of people-pleasing—and how to finally break free. Together, they explore the surprising ways emotional intelligence, self-advocacy, and societal expectations shape your ability to negotiate—whether in the office, at home, or in everyday life. Amy reveals the evolutionary roots of people-pleasing, when it can actually help you, and when it slowly erodes your self-worth. By the end, you’ll understand exactly how your self-perception impacts your influence, your relationships, and your overall life satisfaction—and what to do about it.
