People-Pleasing is Normal

It’s normal to be a people-pleaser.

We’re practically raised that way.

Be nice. Be a good girl. Smile more.

This is why, when you get to the point that you’re ready to take the next big step in your business, you come up against a lot of shitty feelings.

Business growth can mean setting boundaries, raising prices, and making new policies—and sometimes, other people don’t like that.

“How dare you?”

“But we’ve always done it this way.”

“So-and-so isn’t going to like this.”

I don’t make it through a single week without coaching a client on this transition. Making big moves in your business pretty much guarantees you’ll piss someone off.

And it’s okay.

It doesn’t mean you’ve made a mistake, even though this is what your brain will automatically tell you.

It just means you’ve grown.

And if you play your cards right, your business will keep growing. And with every leap, you’ll face another set of tough decisions. That’s just how it goes.
