Barbara hi.

Yes they could be similar to an extent.

People pleasing may be a way to charm their way into people's lives. Narcissists people please to get access into our lives.

People pleasers want to make us happy so that we drop our guard with them.

People pleasers want to tell us what we want to hear and therefore, we feel good about ourselves and their friendship.

In this sense, yes, they could be the same side of the coin.
