The People Pleaser Recovery Guide: How to Stop Bleeding for Everyone Else
You don’t need to burn yourself alive to keep other people warm.
This guide is for the high-functioning people pleasers. The ones who say yes when they mean no. The ones who carry everyone else’s emotions and call it empathy while slowly disappearing inside themselves.
Inside this 15 page guide you’ll get
- The trauma roots of people pleasing
- A breakdown of the fawn response and nervous system triggers
- The No Practice Protocol (with 3 levels of boundary building)
- Emergency scripts for guilt trips, emotional manipulation, and family pressure
- Disappointment tolerance training and reality check reframes
- Quick-reference boundary tools and decision filters
- A final mindset reset to stop bleeding for everyone else and start protecting your peace
This is the recovery manual for anyone who has ever been called too nice, too soft, or too available — and felt like they were slowly dying from it.
Written by Cody Taymore — trauma survivor, ADHD professional, former top financial advisor, and creator of Kill The Silence. You’ll never be guilt-tripped the same way again.
A tactical guide to break free from chronic people pleasing, set boundaries without guilt, and finally make your needs matter. Designed for trauma survivors, burned-out caregivers, and anyone who feels emotionally hijacked by others' expectations. Fast, practical, and immediately useful.
