Are you a people-pleaser who says 'yes' even when you don’t mean it? Inspired by a listener's request for this topic, a quote from Kat, and a real-life example of Kat offering to record even when she’s sick…Amy dives into the reasons behind people-pleasing and why it’s so hard for some to say no, and she also shares tips for setting boundaries with kindness. 

QUOTE:

“If we don't say yes authentically, we say yes resentfully, and that leads to far more problems than if we'd said no in the first place.”

Reset Your Day: A Quick Relaxation Exercise You Need In Your Life

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/d864d102-b845-41f4-b239-b21a00bebe20/transcript

Do you trust people too quickly? That is something not to rush for sure. Amy & Kat go over 5 things in life you do NOT need to rush. Amy also shares 5 ways to co-regulate with an animal (sounds odd…but it can actually be very helpful if you’re dysregulated!) They also go over what you feel like when you’re regulated vs. what you feel like when dysregulated.

Today’s Quote:

“Just had to quit my job so I would have enough time to make sure I was eating enough protein.” - Simon C. Holland 



Kat’s Protein Balls:

1 cup of old fashioned oats

1 cup of quick cooking oats

¾ cup of honey

1 cup of peanut butter

2-3 scoops of protein powder (chocolate or vanilla preferably) 

Chocolate semi-sweet chips to your liking (measure with love….maybe ½ cup) 

2 tbsp of ground flax seed 

Mix everything in a bowl. Mash up with your hands until it’s all sticking together and roll into balls. Amy thinks sprinkling a little sea salt on top of each ball would be a yummy touch.
