Summary

You’ve probably heard the old expression, “People: you can’t live with them”. But if that’s true, why do we spend so much of our time and energy trying to make them happy? A lot of us are “people pleasers”. Most of the time we put the needs of others above our own. It turns out that that may be one of the main reasons we can’t hit our weight and health goals. This week, Catherine and Donald walk you through an article by clinical psychologist Jennifer Guttman which focuses on 6 things you can do to untangle your habit of being a people pleaser. It’s time to make your own health a priority. Plus, Catherine has the finger quivers, Donald keeps his appointments written down in his flying car, and no one knows how much water is in a liter.
