Are You Mad at Me?
From psychotherapist Meg Josephson, a groundbreaking “cure for chronic people-pleasing” (Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author) that explores the common survival instinct called fawning and offers “explanations, comfort, and best of all, solutions” (Christie Tate, New York Times bestselling author).Are you constantly worried about what people think of you—if they like you, if they’re mad at you? Do you overextend yourself, avoid conflict, or find yourself over-apologizing, only to feel resentful afterward? In her “instant self-help classic” (Ada Calhoun, New York Times bestselling author), Josephson explores fawning, an instinct learned in childhood to stay safe by becoming more appealing, agreeable, and helpful to perceived threats. Over time, this instinct disconnects us from who we are, what we want, and what we prefer. With “lucid prose and smart mix of clinical expertise, personal disclosure, and pertinent case studies” (Publishers Weekly), Are You Mad at Me? shows you how to: - Identify all the roles you might play—from peacekeeper to performer to caretaker to lone wolf to perfectionist to chameleon—that keep you far from yourself. - Stop fearing your thoughts and emotions, even if they’re unpleasant. - Rethink conflict and boundaries as an opening for deeper connection. - Practice “leaning back” in relationships. - Recognize when people-pleasing is actually necessary (with your chaotic boss) and when it’s not (with your close friends) and stop self-loathing when you slip into old patterns. - Shift away from the familiar chaos, anxiety, and resentment you’re used to as you move closer to yourself and a life that no longer depletes you—but brings you joy. Josephson offers a path out of people-pleasing—transforming your relationships so you can stop focusing on what others think and start honoring your own needs. No more wondering: Are you mad at me?

Bist du sauer auf mich?
'Uns wird beigebracht, die Bedürfnisse der anderen vor unsere eigenen zu stellen, und dabei verlieren wir die Möglichkeit, herauszufinden, wer wir wirklich sind, was wir brauchen, was wir mögen und bevorzugen.' - Meg Josephson hat eine neue Sichtweise auf dieses weit verbreitete Verhaltensmuster entwickelt: Beim People Pleasing handelt es sich nicht um einen Charakterzug, sondern um eine Traumareaktion. Erlernt wird dieses Verhalten in der Kindheit. Die Angst des Kindes in einem unsicheren Elternhaus wird zur grundsätzlichen Angst, abgelehnt zu werden. Doch Menschen, die allen gefallen und jedem ein gutes Gefühl geben möchten, leiden nicht selten an Erschöpfungszuständen, Schlaflosigkeit und endlosen Gedankenschleifen. Sie überanalysieren jede Äußerung und vermuten immer das Schlimmste. Die gute Nachricht ist, man kann dieses Muster durchbrechen!In diesem ermutigenden Buch erzählt Meg Josephson ihre eigene bewegende Geschichte und die ihrer vielen Klient*innen. Sie zeigt, wie man Schritt für Schritt ein Gefühl der inneren Sicherheit kultiviert und die alten Schutzmechanismen ablegt, um authentisch und mit Selbstachtung zu leben.

Are You Mad at Me?
Over fawning, trauma, en hoe je stopt met pleasenE-bookFawning, de achterliggende oorzaak van people pleasen: waarom je jezelf aanpast en hoe je daarmee kunt stoppen Getipt in de podcast Aaf en Lies lossen het wel weer op! Pleasen wordt vaak uitgelegd als zelfsabotage, maar is in feite een verdedigingsmechanisme. We doen het als we denken dat we iemand teleurstellen of iets verkeerd hebben gedaan. In plaats van te vechten, vluchten of bevriezen (fight, flight, freeze) is dit de vierde manier om te reageren op stress en trauma: fawning. Het betekent dat we ons aanpassen, niet zelden ten koste van onszelf. Maar wat zit er achter dit pleasegedrag? De internationaal bekende psychotherapeut en TikToksensatie Meg Josephson maakt inzichtelijk dat fawning geen slechte gewoonte is die je even af moet leren. Dit gedrag kan verklaard worden door trauma’s die je dwongen om jezelf te beschermen. Met toegankelijke tools als meditatie, inzichten uit erkende therapievormen, oosterse wijsheden en mindfulness leert Meg je jezelf te helen. Gezien in o.a. Marie Claire, Psychologie Magazine, Flow, Algemeen Dagblad, Libelle en Trouw. Voor lezers van Nicole Lepera (How to Do The Work), Bessel van der Kolk (Traumasporen) en Brene Brown (De kracht van kwetsbaarheid).
