Summary

Has your people-pleasing habit left you with an overstuffed calendar, unrelenting anxiety that someone might be mad at you, and the inability to get through tough conversations without having a heart attack and the desire to check out at night with alcohol? If you worry a lot about what other people think of you, look towards others for approval and validation, or feel like you need to please the people around you to be accepted and loved, it’s common to reach for a glass of wine to ease that discomfort.

0:18.5	But it wasn't that long ago that I was anxious, overwhelmed, and drinking a bottle
0:23.1	of wine a night to unwind. I thought that wine was the glue, holding my life together,
