What if love was never asking you to disappear?

In this threshold episode of No People Pleasing Zone, EZ revisits a childhood story that reinforced her understanding of sacrifice, belonging, and love.

This time she hears it differently.

Through the story of Barrington Bunny, EZ explores how devotion rooted in self-knowing is fundamentally different from the kind of self-erasure that often masquerades as goodness. This episode gently disrupts the belief that belonging must be earned through sacrifice, and invites a re-seeing of what love actually requires; and what it never asked of you.

This is not an episode about fixing yourself.
It’s about shifting lenses.
And letting that change how you live, love, and belong.

In This Episode, EZ Explores:

• The difference between self-erasure and devotion rooted in self-knowing
• How people-pleasing forms when belonging feels conditional
• Why sacrifice without identity leads to disconnection, not intimacy
• The body’s role in signaling when love costs too much
• What becomes possible when the gift comes first

A Question to Sit With:

Where in your life did you learn that belonging required you to disappear?

And what might become possible if you let yourself know who you are before you give yourself away?

Let it linger.
Let it land.
Let it percolate.
