The Yes-Man Trap: When Pleasing Others Destroys Your Integrity

Description:

You’re the “nice one.” The “helpful one.” The one who never rocks the boat.

But here’s the truth: every time you say yes out of fear, you abandon yourself.

 

In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, I explore the invisible cost of people-pleasing—especially when alcohol is involved. From parenting moments with my daughter Zia to money conversations with my wife Liza, I reveal how my fear of conflict used to rule my life—and how I reclaimed my voice by learning to say no with love.

 

This isn’t about being selfish. It’s about restoring your integrity.

It’s about dropping the fear-driven yes… and choosing a boundary from SELF.

 

You’ll learn the difference between conscious kindness and covert self-betrayal, and why honouring your truth—especially in social settings—is one of the most courageous things you can do.

 

If you’ve ever poured a drink you didn’t want, stayed at a party you didn’t enjoy, or said yes just to avoid being judged… this one’s for you.

 

Much love—and STRIVE on!

Lee
