The taboos surrounding sex, sexuality, and sexual health have been a long, withstanding battle that advocates still fight to eradicate.

We are graced by my prodigious colleague Nicole Johnston—a feminist and community organizer who has a fiery commitment to policy development that intersects between gender equality, peacebuilding and post conflict development, and the role of public policy in designing gender transformative peace processes.

16 - Is Being a People Pleaser a Bad Thing?

11/28/2022
[The boundaries workshop is no longer running] Do you identify with being a people pleaser? Do you have the compulsion to go out of your way to do things for others to your own detriment? Many consider being a ‘people pleaser’ a negative, implying that you can’t stand up for yourself and establish boundaries. But for others, it’s often just about wanting to help people—and is that such a bad thing? The fact of the matter is, it isn’t a bad thing at all. However, there’s a line that you can cross that can turn wanting to help others into compulsive people-pleasing. Here’s an overview of what was discussed.
