Today I am talking about fawning aka people pleasing! In my last podcast episode the topic of fawning came up briefly and I do not feel I did it the justice it deserves. And so now we have Episode 3.People pleasing is something A LOT of us do, some of us just more than others.We fawn to create safety and for most of us, we do feel more immediately safe. Therefore, we are continually reinforced to keep doing it (hello positive feedback loop that isn’t actually helping me!) And unfortunately, for some of us as children, fawning did save us making it a trauma response we are continuing to act out without even thinking about it.In this brief episode I also dive into:1.what fawning is2. why we do it depending on each attachment tendency3. what is going on in our nervous systems as we fawn4. the fight, flight, flee, fawn response5. why awareness is key and the first step to healingAfter you listen I’d love to know what resonated for you, if you have any other questions for me, or other topics you’d like me to address.You can find me at www.leshanelson.comYou can email me at [email protected]You can follow me on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/lesha__nelson/And on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/lesha.nelson11
