People Pleasing is Just Your Trauma Throwing a Tantrum Featuring Stephanie Costello

A Wild and Precious Life

Feb 2 2022 • 43 mins

Why do we say yes when we want to say no?  What do we volunteer, run ourselves ragged, and overextend our already overextended bodies?

Because we want to fit in, we want to belong, and we are terrified of being left out.

It doesn't have to be this way-we can learn to stop the madness.   Join Jen and Stephanie Costello as they discuss how they battled their own internal struggles with people-pleasing, boundary setting, and serving themselves first.

My guest this week is Stephanie Costello!  She is an all-around amazing trauma survivor, wife, mom, and extreme mountain climber.  She won't be a one-hit wonder, but we already have another episode planned!  Here is a little more about her and her links:

Stephanie has over 10 years of experience in the Mental Health Field working with individuals ranging from 6 years to 50 years old. Attending school for Criminal Justice, Human Services, and Psychology, Stephanie has learned the essential skills to relationship building.


Becoming a mom of three beautiful children and being diagnosed with PTSD, the struggle of working through these life changes has propelled her ability to support people. Receiving the diagnosis and going through labor was the easy part. Finding the inspiration and belief in herself was the real challenge.

This is why men and women alike, turn to Stephanie when they want to find safety in freedom through embracing themselves, owning their power and breaking free of toxic patterns.

Stephanie has beaten all statistical odds. Her life journey has fueled her fire to help people take action and fight through the resistance. Relationships are all about compromise and collaboration. Giving and receiving energy. If you are ready to take action and build a healthy relationship both with yourself and the individuals in your life, Stephanie is the one for you.
