Ever caught yourself saying 'yes' when your heart says 'no'? 🤔
Welcome to the club!
We all please to some degree, and we all have different languages of pleasing.
In looking at the 5 Languages of Love, I realized this idea also rings true for people-pleasing, so I adapted them here.
These are the 5 Languages of People-Pleasing:
1. Words to Please: the 'yes' when we really wanted to say no
2. Acts of Pleasing: the favours we hope will earn us gold stars
3. Gifts that Please: the gifts we give to get praise back
4. Touch of Hope: the hugs (and other things) we trade for brownie points
5. "Quality" Time: the hours we spend hoping they'll be returned
Each one of these is a unique dance in the art of pleasing others.
But at what cost? 🧐
*DISCLAIMER* There is nothing wrong with doing these 5 things. It becomes pleasing and poisonous when we expect something in return and build resentment when we don't get anything back.
What's your Pleasing Language?

Life has been pretty sweet ✨
I’m really learning that it’s never my circumstances or my past that determine my current experience of my life.
It’s the choices I make right now that determine my experience of my life.
These are the choices I’ve been making:
I choose to be brave
I choose what I focus on
I choose who I want to surround myself with
I choose what I am creating
I choose who I want to become
I choose me
You have the power to change everything in your life right in this moment.
Each choice you make is a vote for the person you are becoming.
Make your choices with intention 💖
What new choices have you made lately?

What you resist persists.
I went camping this weekend and got COVERED in mosquito bites.
I spent my Sunday night itching my feet and stuffing them under the couch cushion to try and forget that they were even itchy.
You can’t feel what you can’t see, right?
WRONG.
The itching kept persisting and my feet got worse.
The moment I accepted that I was covered in bites and stopped just avoiding the problem altogether, I could finally do something about it, like go get some dang afterbite!
What you resist persists.
What you embrace dissolves.
Quit resisting the negative feeling or thought and acknowledge it! Only then can you really do something about it.
Embrace the feeling, take action, and see it dissolve.

It’s all yoga.
Taking my teacher training back in 2016 changed the trajectory of my life in the most magical way ✨
I became much more aware of how I was showing up and who I wanted to be.
I stopped trying to please everyone else and started showing up for me 💖
I started dreaming big and altering my life to one I’m super proud of 🙌
I cannot recommend the 200hr yoga teacher training with enough.
Whether you want to teach or you just want to immerse into self-development, this training is the 💣
This year it’s available in-person AND online so if you’ve wanted to take a personal development program or yoga teacher training but your location restricted you, NOW IS YOUR TIME
Message me for details 📩

The only thing you can be certain about in life is that things will ALWAYS be changing.
If you told me 10 years ago that I would be co-leading a yoga retreat in Spain and travelling with an amazing group of humans that are into growing and shifting, I would likely not have believed you - I may have even laughed.
I was in first year engineering at the time! 😅
Things will change, your priorities, your values, your people, your job/career, and that’s life. It’s the ebb and flow of living, and it’s perfect 🤗
Find joy where you’re at and listen for when you’re being pulled to something different ✨
It all works out in the end, enjoy it while you’re here and take the risks that make your life magical💖
If you’re being called to change and are looking for guidance, my dms are always open 🤗
