Have you ever said “yes” when you wanted to say “no” just to avoid conflict? In this episode of Selfless to Self-YES, we’re diving deep into the difference between being nice and being kind—and why always trying to be "nice" can actually hurt you.

I share a personal story about a family vacation gone wrong, all because I felt pressured to be the nice person. Spoiler alert: it did not end well. But through that experience, I learned a powerful lesson about people-pleasing, boundaries, and the cost of ignoring my own needs.

Tune in as we explore:
✅ The hidden dangers of being "too nice"
✅ Why kindness is more powerful than niceness
✅ How people-pleasing affects your authenticity
✅ Practical steps to break free from the “nice” trap

If you've ever felt drained from constantly accommodating others, this episode is for you. It’s time to trade nice for authentic and start honoring yourself!
