About this listen

Are you hand-grating carrots for people who wouldn't even open a bag of chips for you? You have spent years being the "General Manager" of your family and career. You are the fixer, the doer, and the peacekeeper. But the moment you stop over-functioning, the people around you don't thank you, they freak out. In this episode, Twana breaks down the "Extinction Burst" the behavioral psychology concept that explains exactly why your family and coworkers scream louder the moment you finally say "No." In this episode, we cover:

The "Carrot Cake" Trap: Why over-functioning is actually a form of manipulation (and why it feels like death to stop).

The Extinction Burst: Why the toddler kicks the vending machine when the candy stops coming and why your "toxic stakeholders" are doing the same thing to you.

The 3 Scripts: Exact blueprints to handle the rage so you don’t backslide into people-pleasing.
