The quiet one. The polite one. The one the teacher loves. The one whose name never comes up at dinner. In this episode, I'm walking through how people-pleasing actually starts (long before adulthood, long before therapy) and how loving, thoughtful parents accidentally build it without realizing. We'll cover the difference between calm and hypervigilance, the five patterns that quietly install the people-pleaser wiring, and the three practices to make your child's real self welcome in your house.
