Gratitude Over Apologies: The Confidence Hack People Pleasers Need

Do you find yourself saying "sorry" constantly, even for minor things? If so, you might be caught in the "sorry syndrome," a pattern of "apologizing too much" that often signals deeper insecurities or a "trauma response." This video explores the "psychology" behind this behavior, showing how it can stem from defense mechanisms like "fight or flight" and impact your "communication skills." We offer practical ways to "stop saying sorry" and express gratitude instead, fostering more assertive interactions.

We dive into the concept of the "Fawn Response," a safety behavior learned in childhood to de-escalate conflict by making oneself small. You will learn how this pattern undermines your professional credibility at work and creates imbalance in your relationships by making you feel responsible for other people's moods. Most importantly, we share practical communication tools like the "Thank You Swap" and the "Apology Audit" to help you stop minimizing your existence and start communicating with confidence and self-respect.
