- Ep. 87 Breaking The Chains of People Pleasing with Tina O Hoang Michele Simms 48:03
In this episode of ‘The Beauty In The Mess,’ host Michelle interviews Tina, a podcaster who describes herself as a ‘recovering people pleaser.’ Tina shares her backstory, growing up in a single-parent household and how cultural expectations led her to constantly seek approval from others. A pivotal comment from a past relationship spurred Tina to reassess her life choices and embark on a journey of self-discovery, which included confronting her inner child and making significant Lifestyle and mindset changes. Tina discusses the ongoing struggle of breaking free from people-pleasing tendencies, the importance of setting boundaries, and offers practical advice on how to start embracing one’s true self. She also speaks about the inception of her podcast, ‘Courageous Inner Beast,’ which provides a platform for women to share their unfiltered and uncensored stories of courage.
Tina is a disabled podcast host of ‘Courageous Inner Beast. She strives to ensure women have the space to choose themselves and share their courageous stories, whether it is changing how you are perceived within a family dynamic, leaving a comfortable 9-5, or advocating for yourself. She believes women of color are allowed to take the first step and don’t need permission to do so. After someone told her that her passivity was unattractive, she reviewed her life and decided to become as assertive and courageous as she could ever be! She knows that even when we are scared of making that first step, we need to say do it anyways. Make choice despite the paralyzing and roaring feeling growing within them. We also need to dive within ourselves to heal the inner child and play more often as adults. Tina loves to Travel, read, and be present with nature. Her favorite national park so far is Glacier National Park.
