Hailey Magee helps success-seekers reconnect with real meaning, purpose, and vitality⁠—without work being their entire world.

Too Much Change All At Once: The Transition Stack


“There’s a strange, dislocating feeling that I’ve been trying to put to words for weeks: the feeling that who I am now, and who I was before, are strangers⁠—with lives so different, they’d hardly recognize each other were they to pass on the street.



Friends,

I haven’t written since June, because summer has been rich and busy. Mercifully, I’ve been emerging from a season that

“Imagine how different the world would be if little girls were taught to set boundaries as often as they were taught to be polite.”
Hailey Paige Magee, Stop People Pleasing: And Find Your Power

“As concepts like people-pleasing and self-care become more mainstream, complex ideas like boundaries are often diluted in ways that ultimately discourage us from building healthy relationships. We’re told that if someone doesn’t bring us “love and light at all times,” we should “cut them out.” We’re told that if someone disagrees with us, we should leave them behind to “protect our peace.” We’re told that if someone can’t meet every single one of our needs, we “deserve better.”

These one-dimensional platitudes ignore the reality that human relationships are complicated. They impede our healing by encouraging us to seek an unattainable standard, and they prevent us from looking inward to assess how we may be contributing to our own unhappiness or disempowerment.”
Hailey Paige Magee, Stop People Pleasing: And Find Your Power

“This healing isn’t a one-time event; it is a process of rededicating ourselves to ourselves, over and over again. Every time we redirect our attention back to our feelings, our desires, and our dreams, we are healing. Every time we soothe ourselves through our guilt instead of reacting to it, we are healing. Every time we use our voice where we would have once stayed silent, we are healing.”
