🎙️ Episode Title: Setting Boundaries & Overcoming People-Pleasing with Sarah Czopek

In this episode of The Mostly Under Control Podcast, I sit down with Sarah Czopek, the owner of Grace and Gratitude Counseling Services in Downers Grove, Illinois. Sarah and her team specialize in helping women and teen girls navigate challenges like anxiety, trauma, and the societal pressures of people-pleasing.

We dive into the upcoming Beyond Motherhood Summit in January, where one of Sarah's clinicians, Liz, will present a powerful session on "Boundaries and People Pleasing: When to Say Yes and How to Say No." Sarah shares insights into why so many women struggle with these issues, especially as mothers, and offers practical advice for taking back control of your time and energy.

👩‍👧‍👦 Topics Discussed:

• How cultural conditioning fuels people-pleasing behaviors.
• The connection between confidence and setting boundaries.
• Simple first steps to becoming more assertive in your relationships.
• Why it’s okay to say no—and how to do it without guilt.

📅 Summit Info: Liz’s session will take place on Saturday, January 18th, at 1:30 PM.
