Want to know why the US has been free from polio since 1979? Vaccines. Which RFK Jr. wants to get rid of. I bet you can guess what will happen if he gets his way.

Trauma conditioning lies to us about how important others' approval is. It just does. It knows getting us to believe that others' approval is as (or more!) important than oxygen is an amazing way to keep us anxious & focused on things other than our own needs, goals, & recovery.

People-pleasing is a mechanism for control. The goal is to get people to like you, even at the expense of being your authentic self.

Anxiety isn’t always racing heart & nervousness. It’s people-pleasing because you fear being judged. It’s not sharing your authentic thoughts because you don’t want someone to stop liking you. It’s overthinking about something then feeling stupid when everything worked out in the end. Anxiety sucks.
