I am a people pleaser which means I am hard-wired to please people sometimes at the expense of me. With that comes some imposter syndrome; if I don’t please others, they won’t like me. Thanks to my Missus who referred me to a training from work. Also, it comes with some self-esteem issues that I have had my whole life. Sometimes I don’t feel like I belong and find myself struggling to fit in. The whole imposter thing is a recent revelation and some attributes I can understand.

I am kind, courteous, and helpful but do people see that and think I am being fake or insincere by trying to please?

Life is a struggle, and adding other stuff makes it even harder. Do you feel the same way?
