Description

Why do boundaries always seem to come after the meltdown?
In this episode, we’re diving into what it really means to set boundaries before you're running on empty. We’ll explore the difference between reactive and proactive boundary-setting, how to recognize the early signs that you’re stretched too thin, and how to speak up without over-explaining or shutting people out. If you've ever felt like you're either saying yes to keep the peace or saying no in a panic, this episode is going to change the way you think about boundaries for good.

You might want to listen if:

  • You say yes when you really mean no
  • You shut down or lash out when you’re overwhelmed
  • You feel like boundaries always create conflict
  • You’re exhausted from managing everyone else’s emotions
  • You want to speak your needs without guilt or fear
