Manage episode 458080341 series 3142017
Amy Wilson was recently featured in the New York Time's article "How to Let People Down and Be OK With It!"
In Amy's forthcoming memoir HAPPY TO HELP: ADVENTURES OF A PEOPLE PLEASURE, she grapples with how women are conditioned to be "happy to help," and what happens when someone tries to do things differently. As the article explores how setting boundaries often means disappointing others, Amy was the perfect person to share her experiences.
HAPPY TO HELP is a must-read especially at the start of a new year and gives readers a moment to reflect. Amy dives into how constantly being a people pleaser took a toll on her health, addresses the importance and struggle of advocating for yourself and your kids, and tackles the deep grip perfectionism has one's life and the value of true self-acceptance. Amy's emotional intelligence and humor shine through her writing as she analyzes mom culture, a woman's role in society, and how we all take on more than is humanly possible.
