EP 37 | PEOPLE PLEASING, EMPATHY,
AND BOUNDARIES

people pleasing, empathy, and boundaries psychedelic integration podcast
What are some common personality traits that people with anxiety, chronic pain, and chronic illness share? You guessed it… People pleasing, empathy without boundaries, perfectionism, self-sacrifice, low self-worth, and more. Turns out taking on stuff that isn’t yours and seeking validation and worth outside yourself can manifest as all kinds of illnesses and coping behaviors over time. Plus, it doesn’t feel good to always put your needs behind someone else’s. You deserve to feel safe and whole within yourself, and these are simply ways that we learn to protect ourselves, cope, and exist in the world. Working with psychedelics can help you to see these in yourself, and find your way into more self-confidence and self-love.
 
In today’s episode of The Psychedelic Integration Podcast, Sinclair is digging into empathy, people pleasing, boundaries, codependency and more. We’ll talk about how these protective behaviors develop and what the path to freedom looks like. It’s time to normalize our trauma response so that we can arrive in a place of compassion and healing rather than shame and disappointment. Looking into yourself and offering love to whatever you find there is all part of the path of healing with plant medicines.
 

In this episode, Sinclair discusses:

  • People pleasing – seeking external validation, finding your worth in others, putting others before yourself
  • Trauma responses and taking responsibility for healing that part of you so that you can move forward
  • How to protect your sacred temple, setting boundaries, what’s allowed in, what’s not, what’s yours, what’s not
  • Triggers and activations are actually your helpers, they are showing you where your habit energy lies
  • All conflicts between humans begin with expectations
  • Putting boundaries in place for yourself and respecting the boundaries of other people
  • Ask yourself what you need, nourishing yourself, taking care of your body, taking care of your health
