Lying is such an interesting topic—and after working with many women who feel stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, I’ve learned that lying and truth-telling are far more complex than they may seem. I’m not talking about lies meant to cause harm, but the everyday ones we tell to keep ourselves safe and comfortable: saying we’re fine when we’re not, or yes when we mean no. In this interactive episode, I’m introducing the framework I’ll be using to explore this topic and offering reflections to help you understand your patterns around people-pleasing and lying. Here’s what I cover:

• Why lying is not a character flaw of people-pleasers, but a survival strategy
• How childhood experiences influence our beliefs and behaviors around truth
• How lying creates a disconnect in our relationships—with ourselves and others
• Why telling the truth requires internal safety and nervous system regulation
• Reflection questions to help you notice why you may choose to lie in certain situations
