Inner Work With MaryAnn Walker: Life Coach for People Pleasers
Are you a people pleaser or a highly sensitive person who somehow became the unofficial emotional support human for everyone in your life… and now you’re exhausted? If so, you’re not alone—and this podcast is for you.
I’m MaryAnn Walker, and I help people pleasers and highly sensitive people break free from people pleasing, stop abandoning themselves, and finally find peace (without turning into someone they’re not).
Each week, we explore how to set boundaries without guilt, stop over-accommodating, and rebuild self-trust—so your relationships can feel more balanced, safe, and mutually supportive.
Through practical tools, gentle coaching, and real-life examples, you’ll learn how to care for others without losing yourself, trust your own voice, and create emotional safety in your life.
It’s time to stop people pleasing, put down the weight of everyone else’s emotions, and start experiencing the peace and self-respect you deserve.
Hit subscribe now and let’s help you feel more grounded, confident, and at home in your own life.
If you’re ready for more customized support, I would love to work with you. You can have a life filled with peace, clarity, and connection—and I can show you how.

Inner Work With MaryAnn Walker: Life Coach for People Pleasers
5: Manuals
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We wouldn't consciously choose to make someone else 100% responsible for our emotional state. But when we are acting through emotional childhood, we are doing exactly that. We are making our happiness 100% conditional upon how someone else chews their food, drives, or cleans.
We know we are acting through emotional childhood when we discover we have an invisible manual for how others how they should think, act, and behave in order for us to feel good.
Clinging to these manuals/expectations robs us of emotional accountability and creates resentment and power struggles.
Releasing these manuals/expectations helps us to open up mental and emotional space that we can then invest into the things we DO want to create vs resisting the things we DON'T want in life.
