#807: Don’t Be a Gumby

Ever notice how you contort yourself to fit what someone else wants? When you play small, hide parts of yourself, or pretend to be something you’re not just to have a relationship?

You can’t have happiness when you’re living a half-life. Subservience to an ideal—whether it’s a relationship, a lifestyle, or some fantasy version of yourself—is just another prison you’ve built.

Ready to stop contorting yourself into someone else’s idea of perfect? This episode will help you recognize where you’re sacrificing your authenticity and how to reclaim the real you.

In this episode, Tracy explores:

  • Why suppressing your authentic self guarantees relationship failure
  • How avoidants develop “imposter syndrome” in relationships
  • The exhausting pattern of hiding who you are to please others

“No one who wants to suppress you and you wanting to suppress you makes nobody happy. Remember that. Happy people don’t need another person to make them happy.” ~ Tracy Crossley
