Setting boundaries is an important skill that can help you protect your well-being, maintain healthy relationships, and achieve your goals. Boundaries are limits that you set for yourself, and they can be physical, emotional, or mental.
I share some tips for setting boundaries plus some of the many types of boundaries, including physical, emotional, intellectual, time and material.
I also talk about some of the reasons for not setting boundaries and how to overcome them.
Boundary setting requires self-awareness, communication, and flexibility.

Have you ever been told that a health condition is something you simply have to "manage" for the rest of your life? That the only way forward is through lifelong medication and constant vigilance?Today’s guest, Kathryn Waldrom found herself at that exact crossroads. After a routine health check-up, Kathryn was diagnosed with diabetes and prescribed medication without a second thought. But Kathryn chose a different path, one of remembrance, presence, and deep listening.In this episode, we explore Kathryn’s journey of refusing to treat her body as a "problem to be fixed." Instead, she began to look at the "loops" we live inside, the stress, the grief of losing her parents and the emotional fallout of a ending marriage. Key Information:03:35 The Stress-Glucose Connection: How cortisol and deep-seated emotions like "lack of love" manifest physically in our blood sugar levels.15:36 Radical Self-Acceptance: Moving from a state of "reaction" to one of "response" and peace.18:40 Dropping the Labels: The power of shifting from "I am a diabetic" to "I am having an experience."24:45 The Gift of Symptoms: How to thank our bodies for their signals rather than hating the condition.35:10 Reaction mode versus responding: Seeing and respecting emotions.Kathryn doesn’t call herself a healer or a teacher; she speaks of a "signal restoration", a way of coming back home to oneself. This conversation isn't about doing more or trying harder, it’s about what softens when we stop fighting our own bodies.Kathryn’ s BioKathryn (Kya) is not a teacher, healer, or guide, she is a field of remembrance.From early life, she carried the question, How do I behave here?, not from confusion, but from awareness entering form. She did not forget what she was, but chose to walk through distortion as presence, quietly witnessing how systems shape identity and loop belief.Her vision of the Murky Sea was not metaphor, but direct knowing. In it, she stood at the edge of a vast dark ocean, not water, but thought-form. The sea was made of loops, emotional echo, ancestral code, identity scaffolds, memory mistaken as truth. She saw that most never leave it. They swim, strive, seek clarity, but remain inside. The sea is not malevolent. It simply loops. And until it is seen as illusion, it feels like life itself.From this vision came Signal Restoration, not a method, but a field. A soft return. It does not heal, guide, or fix. It ends the pretending.Kathryn does not offer awakening. She lives it. And in that presence, the loop dissolves.She offers private Signal Restoration bookings in person, by quiet invitation only. These are not advertised or promoted. They are felt, and followed, by those ready to return.She lives in Spain and is not in a role. She is what remains when roles fall away.Connect with Kathryn https://www.facebook.com/kathryn.waldrom.1 Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

What do you do when you’re told there’s nothing left to be done and medicine cannot save you? For Diane Langlois, a terminal diagnosis of Stage 4 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma wasn't the end, it was the beginning of a 30-year journey into the power of the human spirit.In this episode, I sit down with Diane and discuss the moment she looked at her five young children and decided she wasn't going anywhere. Diane reminds us that we aren't broken machines in need of a mechanic, we are vibrant beings with an innate ability to heal. Join us for a conversation that will change the way you listen to your own body.Episode Highlights01:23 – The "Nothing More We Can Do" moment: Diane recounts her 1995 diagnosis of Stage 4 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. She describes the chilling moment doctors told her there were no medical options left and sent her home to say her goodbyes.06:29 – Healing vs. Fixing Diane explains her core philosophy: the body isn't a machine that needs "fixing" by an external expert. Instead, it is a powerful system that, when given the right tools and lifestyle, has the innate ability to restore itself.08:27 – Tuning into the "Whispers" A lesson in body literacy. Diane explains that physical symptoms are not the body being "mean," but are actually "whispers" and cries for help that we must learn to listen to before they become "screams."10:51 – The Engine Light Analogy As a metaphor for modern medicine: taking a pill to mask a symptom is like putting a sticker over the "check engine" light in your car. Diane advocates for digging deeper to find the root cause.11:56 – The First Step: Two Minutes of Stillness For those overwhelmed by the idea of "healing," Diane offers a simple starting point: sitting in silence for just two minutes to reconnect the mind with the body.18:02 – The Healing Power of Sound: Diane discusses the science of frequency, explaining how simple acts like humming can stimulate the vagus nerve and increase nitric oxide levels to promote internal balance.23:55 – The Importance of "Your People" Diane emphasizes that healing doesn't happen in isolation. She discusses why finding a supportive, like-minded community is vital for emotional and physical recovery.Diane's Bio Diane Langlois is a Frequency Intuitive, Energetic Healing Guide and holistic wellness advocate devoted to helping women awaken their inner healer and reclaim radiant well-being. With over 30 years of experience in natural health, nutrition and energy medicine, she weaves ancient wisdom with modern resonance-based tools to support emotional balance, mental clarity and whole-body vitality. Through her Sound Sanctuary portals, intuitive scrolls, and signature seasonal offerings, Diane gently guides others back to themselves ~ one breath, one frequency, one remembrance at a time.

Are you a parent at the end of your rope dealing with your child's complex neurological challenges like tics, Tourette's, ADHD or anxiety?Today, we welcome pioneering functional health expert Dr Piper Gibson, founder of the Regenerating Health and Tic Disorder Institute. Dr Gibson shares her powerful, research-backed journey of helping her own son overcome a transient neurological tic disorder and how she now empowers families globally with a holistic, root-cause approach. Discover why symptoms like tics and anxiety are not random and how underlying issues like gut dysfunction, a dysregulated immune system, environmental toxins and genetics are the true drivers.Key Information 02:33 Discover why neurological symptoms like tics, ADHD and anxiety are not random and how these issues are linked to a dysregulated immune system and root causes beyond typical neurological labels.03:44 Parents often miss the underlying issues (like gut problems, genetics and toxicity) that conventional research overlooks. Learn why treatments must go beyond simple probiotics to address parasites, leaky gut and chronic inflammation.04:51 Understand the powerful and often-overlooked gut-brain axis. Dr Gibson explains how inflammation and leaky gut allow pathogens into the bloodstream, triggering immune cells in the brain and driving neurological symptoms.06:45 Dr Gibson outlines her protocol: first, clean up the environment and change the diet. She emphasizes that detoxing too early on an unsupported gut and body can actually worsen symptoms.10:19 Learn about the specific lab tests used to uncover root causes, including PCR stool pathogen tests, organic acids testing, tests for environmental toxins/heavy metals/mycotoxins (mold) and detailed genetic panels (MTHFR, methylation). 13:09 Genetics are not set in stone. Dr Gibson explains epigenetics, showing how parents can manipulate the child's environment (diet, toxins, supplements) to influence gene expression and effectively "turn off" symptomatic neurological genes. 27:16 #1 Tip: Dr Gibson’s top initial tip is to drastically reduce inflammatory sugar and processed foods to immediately support the gut-brain connection and begin the healing process. Piper's Bio Dr Piper Gibson, PhD is a pioneering voice in functional and natural health, specializing in complex neurological conditions like tic disorders, ADHD, and anxiety in children. As the founder of Regenerating Health and the Tic Disorder Institute, she empowers families who are at the end of their rope, offering a research-backed, holistic approach that goes far beyond symptom management.

In this transformative episode, I speak with guest Frank Wright, a naturopathic practitioner and former pastry chef who radically healed his decades-long struggles with depression, anxiety, ADHD and addiction (including severe sugar addiction) using the carnivore diet.Frank, who spent 13 years battling mental health challenges while surrounded by sugar in London's finest kitchens, shares his vulnerable journey from heavy drug and alcohol use to profound sobriety and mental clarity.

In this episode of the Heal Yourself podcast, I sit down with Johnny Miller to hear his incredible story of going from a health expert to near-death and how he finally healed by addressing the "resistance" in his nervous system. He reveals the critical link between chronic stress, the lymphatic system, and the vagus nerve that most doctors overlook.Johnny now teaches others how to heal by integrating somatic movement, lymphatic therapy and breathwork into their exercise routines, turning their workouts into a powerful healing practice. If you feel stuck in a cycle of chronic illness, fear and failed diets, this conversation is a must-watch.🎧 IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:01:46 Johnny's shocking story of developing severe Crohn's colitis at his peak physical health.03:55 Why popular healing diets (AIP, Carnivore, etc.) failed him and only increased his fear.13:40 What "hyper-sympathetic dominance" (chronic fight-or-flight) is and how it drives inflammation.21:00 How Johnny healed while eating Oreo cookies—proving the power of the parasympathetic nervous system.28:49 Practical tools (somatic movement, breathwork, vibration) to "flip the switch" from stress to healing.26:33 How to turn your life's greatest traumas into a "slingshot" for growth and recovery.40:29 The concept of "Radical Acceptance" and finding 10% more enjoyment in your life right now.59:19 Johnny's #1 tip for anyone suffering from chronic illness (it has to do with the news).Johnny's bio When Johnny began his career in Health & Wellness 20 years ago, he never imagined the journey that would lead him to where he is today. He had built a thriving practice as a personal trainer and gym owner, helping people overcome chronic pain, injuries, and surgeries through exercise and nutrition, always encouraging an active, holistic lifestyle.However, despite his best efforts and resources, he couldn't avoid illness himself. In 2018, he became severely sick with chronic inflammation in the form of Crohn's Colitis. At one point, he thought this disease would take everything from him, including his life. He had no idea that it would ultimately give him a life far greater than anything he had experienced before.He now sees his experience with autoimmune disease as the greatest blessing of his life. It has shown him that there are greater forces at play in our well-being beyond just diet and exercise. His journey has given him the tools to help others, as well as himself, in ways he never could have imagined. He now sees life is an incredible journey, and he believes wholeheartedly that life's toughest challenges provide us with the greatest opportunities for growth. He says that every day he is thankful for his life and his experience, which now allows him to help so many others.Connect with Johnny www.youcanheal.fithttps://www.facebook.com/youcanhealfitness/https://www.instagram.com/youcanheal.fit/Who am I?Sarah Dawkins is a passionate Holistic Health and Healing Coach, international speaker and author of Heal Yourself.

Have you ever felt trapped by chronic pain with no clear physical cause? What if the key to healing wasn't in a pill, but locked within your mind? In this episode, I sit down with exercise science expert PJ Glassey, to explore the incredible world of mind-body healing. PJ shares his journey of overcoming debilitating back pain and a severe fractured collar bone, by harnessing the principles of brain rewiring, neuroplasticity and the ground-breaking work of Dr. John Sarno on TMS (Tension Myositis Syndrome).Time stamps05:50 - The Mind-Body Connection: PJ introduces Dr. John Sarno and his work on how the brain creates physical pain (TMS) to distract from emotions.19:51 - Heal Faster Than Expected: PJ receives a nine-month recovery prognosis for his broken clavicle and decides to challenge it, setting his own expectation to heal faster.33:35 - Simple Brain Rewiring Techniques: PJ explains how to use EFT (tapping) as a shortcut to distinguish between emotional and physical pain.37:10 - Communicate with Your Subconscious: PJ shares his simple technique of talking to his subconscious mind (who he calls "Timmy") as a loving parent to release pain.38:08 - The Power of Belief: When asked for his single most important tip, PJ explains why belief and expectation are the keys to unlocking your body's ability to heal.40:33 - Overcoming the Nocebo Effect: PJ discusses how negative medical prognoses can become self-fulfilling prophecies and why it's crucial to take back your power.PJ's bio PJ started personal training in 1987 and successfully grew his business over the following 11 years, training clients in their homes and at local area gyms. With the help of these clients as test subjects, and armed with his degree in Exercise Science, PJ invented his “multi-protocol” concept and refined it through 1998, when he founded the X Gym. He is also the author of the book "Cracking Your Calorie Code" and the inventor of his Brain Type Test, which helps people achieve health and fitness results much faster through specific brain wiring techniques tailored to their unique brain type. PJ’s extensive research into brain science to develop his brain rewiring techniques also helped him through his own healing experiences, which could have been permanently disabling, had he not gone on this personal research and discovery path.Connect with PJxgym.comhttps://www.instagram.com/xgyms https://x.com/XGymhttps://www.facebook.com/xgymshttps://www.youtube.com/xgymWho am I?Sarah is a highly sought-after Holistic Health and Healing Coach, International Speaker and the Author of HEAL YOURSELF.She’s also a Multi-Award-Winning Entrepreneur and Award Winning Host of the popular health-focused podcast, Heal Yourself with Sarah Dawkins.
