Do you often wonder why you find it so hard to say 'no' to people?

  • Maybe you struggle to make time for yourself because you can't switch off — you feel like you should always be doing something.
  • Perhaps you've always felt too sensitive, too dramatic, too needy, too different... 'too much' — and yet never quite enough.
  • Maybe you've been self-sacrificing, suppressing, and masking for so long that it doesn't even feel like a mask anymore — you can’t remember who you really are beneath it.
  • Or you're a therapist or a woman with her own business, someone who cares deeply about what you do — but ‘good girl’ conditioning and spiralling overthinking hold you back from marketing yourself, because being seen doesn’t feel safe.


I'm Charlotte, an experienced psychotherapist, speaker and coach and mentor for women business owners who care deeply about what they do but struggle with overthinking and showing up without the cringe.


I'm so passionate about what I do because for decades, I lived as an anxious people-pleaser—constantly trying to keep others happy so I’d be accepted, always feeling like I was 'too much.'


Until one day, I realised I’d lost myself completely. Something had to change.

When it did, it brought a level of freedom I’d never felt before.

Getting to the root cause helped me let go of the need to please—and finally connect with the real me I’d been suppressing for so long.

With that came a new sense of self-trust, self-belief, and authentic confidence.

And I want you to know: you can find that too.


In the podcast I explore all things people-pleasing, trauma and good-girl conditioning; why you people-please, what the signs are, and the impact it can have on all aspects of your life.


I'll share personal and professional insights and you'll discover tips and strategies to help you stop people-pleasing and break free from what's holding you back, so you can move forward as your authentic self with confidence - in life and in business.

    To do this episode justice, I’ve invited the brilliant Becky—an Anxiety Coach for Teenagers and fellow recovering people-pleaser—to join me in exploring this important topic. Becky talks about the work she does, what people-pleasing can look like in teens, and the early warning signs for you to look out for.

    Becky shares practical, compassionate strategies for helping teens break free from self-sacrifice and begin to build confidence, self-trust, and important emotional boundaries. Whether you're a parent, therapist, or educator, this episode offers hope, clarity, and tools to support the young people in your life.

  • What Another Therapist Posted Shocked Me into Speaking Up Online - And I Didn't Spiral! | Ep 41
    Jul 15 2025

    Have you ever read something online that didn't sit right with you?

    Maybe you noticed your heart race and the real pull to say something - but after re-reading your response so many times, worrying it doesn't sound 'right' ... it just felt easier not to post it, to stay silent.

    Or maybe it didn't even cross your mind to respond - it didn't feel like speaking up was an option you were allowed to choose.

    In this episode, I share a real-life moment where I didn't agree with someone and I did speak up —and how that reflects a significant shift from people-pleasing, overthinking, and fear of being seen as “too much.”

    In this episode I explore:

    • The inner tug-of-war between keeping the peace and speaking your truth
    • Why self-expression can feel so risky—especially for women in business and people-pleasers
    • How therapy and nervous system safety helped me find my voice and how you can too.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck between staying quiet or speaking up, this one's for you.

  • People-Pleasing and the Postpartum Period | Ep. 40
    Jul 8 2025

    There are so many layers to people-pleasing and when you become a Mum it can bring up so much for you! In this episode I've got Erin joining me - a somatic therapist from Baltimore who also works with people-pleasers, whilst we've followed each other on Instagram for a while, this is the first time we have 'met' and chatted.

    This honest conversation covers different ways people-pleasing shows up in postpartum - drawing from our lived experience and professional experience.

    We chat about; how it can reactivate fawning and over-functioning or intensify existing people-pleasing tendencies, what becoming a Mum can bring up for us about our own childhood, how being a mum can help heal our inner child, the impact of the pressure to be the perfect mother, why making mistakes and ruptures in relationships can be a good thing and lots more.

    I hope you find it helpful. To find out more about Erin head to her website and check out her Instagram for fun, relatable and informative content
