If you're always the one who shows up for everyone else, this episode reveals why that strength can quietly become the very thing holding you back.

In this episode, Baylor exposes one of the most overlooked forms of burnout: being the reliable one. The fixer. The hero. The go-to problem solver.

The people pleaser.

It sounds noble. It feels selfless. And you may genuinely believe you're just "helping." But Baylor breaks down how people-pleasing often turns into a subtle, dangerous cycle where you're pouring into everyone else and leaving yourself empty.

He explains how the biggest question every people pleaser must ask is: "Is this truly helping, or am I just supplying the fuel for someone else's laziness?"

You'll hear Baylor unpack why lazy people naturally gravitate toward reliable people, how "emergencies" magically become your problem, and why the person who always helps is rarely the one who gets helped in return.

Then he goes deeper:

• How reciprocity reveals someone's true intentions

• Why "thank you" doesn't always mean gratitude

• Why being dependable becomes your identity

• How manipulation hides inside convenience

• Why the fear of disappointing others keeps you stuck

Most importantly, Baylor challenges you to stop making everyone else the priority—and finally make the person in the mirror your first obligation.

When you do that, you don't just help yourself… you actually start helping the right people in the right ways.
