When Being Good Costs You: A Practical Guide to People-Pleasing, Boundaries, and Self-Trust - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Do you say yes before checking your calendar, hide simple preferences, or feel guilty when someone is disappointed?

When Being Good Costs You is a clear, practical guide for caring people who are tired of confusing kindness with automatic agreement.

Through familiar situations and short exercises, Soren Thale shows you how to:

• recognize the private rules behind people-pleasing

• notice when you leave yourself out of a decision

• pause before committing your time, money, or energy

• say no clearly without overexplaining

• build boundaries around actions you can control

• make room for guilt and repair real mistakes

• rebuild self-trust and choose generosity deliberately

Kindness stays central throughout. The work is to bring your time, capacity, and judgment back into the conversation, tell
ordinary discomfort from real danger, and create relationships that can hold two honest people.

Whether the pattern appears with family, friends, partners, or coworkers, this book gives you practical language and
repeatable steps for responding differently.
