Collective People Pleasers

Difficult Conversations

Have you ever felt like a chameleon, blending into the background of different cultures and communities? That's a reality for many within the Oromo culture, as we unpack in this episode.
Childhood experiences can be like invisible threads, guiding our adult relationships and self-perceptions in ways we often don't realize. We explore these profound influences in this episode, delving into how memories of inclusion or exclusion can shape our interactions and even our tendency to please others at the expense of ourselves.
It's a candid look at the pressures of family expectations, the emotional toll of people-pleasing, and the delicate dance of growing up without losing oneself along the way. As we peel back the layers, we uncover the critical importance of setting boundaries and the cultural nuances that complicate this process.
