Hi Everyone, welcome back. I am Roslyn Saunders, Co-dependency and Addiction Coach Specialist.
For the next few videos, I’m going to focus on codependency in the workplace, businesses, and the corporate arena. Codependency is an epidemic that affects all sectors, in my opinion.
So, for the next few weeks, I’m going to focus on some codependent behaviours that affect us in the workforce. Today, I want to talk about excessive people-pleasing.
Employees might go out of their way to please colleagues and take on too many tasks, leading to burnout. These tasks might be outside their job description, and they might do them to make an impression on superiors
We go outside of what we need to do, we cross the line. Here are a couple of examples: you work through your lunch hour, or you sit at your desk eating your lunch while still working. You stay later than you need to, which infringes on your personal time. You can’t say no and keep healthy boundaries.
This happens in the workplace, and I want people to be mindful of it. I look forward to the next few videos, where I’ll be sharing different stories and ways that we take our codependency into the workplace, business, and the corporate arena.
