How to Break Free From People Pleasing & Start Manifesting…
The journey to stop people-pleasing and start manifesting begins with understanding the cause of people-pleasing and how behaviors can disrupt our energetic alignment by distorting our true selves. Taking us off course from living an abundant and authentic life.
This tendency to seek external validation often stems from a deep-seated desire to feel accepted and worthy, leading people to suppress their true feelings and desires to maintain harmony with others. In terms of the Law of Attraction, people-pleasing can distort our energetic vibration by creating inauthentic interactions and compromising our true selves. This can create discord between our internal beliefs and external actions, hindering our ability to manifest genuine and fulfilling experiences.
