When Did Other People’s Happiness Become Your Job? People-Pleasing & the Cost of Self-Abandonment

Have you ever realised that your life revolves around keeping everyone else happy; your partner, your parents, your kids, while quietly losing touch with yourself? In this episode, I unpack one of the most damaging and deeply conditioned beliefs many high-achievers carry: “Other people’s happiness is my responsibility.” It sounds caring. Noble. Loving. But over time, it fuels anxiety, resentment, burnout, emotional eating, drinking to cope, people-pleasing, and a profound loss of self. In this episode, I explore: Where the belief that you’re responsible for other people’s emotions comes from Why trying to manage everyone else’s happiness erodes self-esteem and mental health How this pattern drives stress, anxiety, addiction, and self-sabotaging behaviours Why resentment is inevitable when you abandon your own needs How to begin letting go of people-pleasing without becoming selfish or cold What it actually means to live aligned, honest, and true to yourself This conversation is for you if: You feel responsible for keeping the peace You struggle to say no without guilt You put everyone else first and feel depleted You cope with stress through food, alcohol, or overworking You’re successful on the outside but disconnected on the inside This isn’t about blaming yourself. It’s about reclaiming your life, your energy, and your sense of self. 🎧 Listen now - and ask yourself the question that changes everything: When did other people’s happiness become my job?
