In this episode of the Quietly Visible Podcast, I delve into a common challenge faced by introverted women leaders—setting and enforcing boundaries.

Whether it's saying yes when you want to say no, avoiding difficult conversations, or overcommitting out of guilt or people-pleasing tendencies, the cost of poor boundaries can be high—emotionally, mentally, and professionally.

I explore:

✔️ Why boundaries are essential for wellbeing, confidence, and effective leadership

✔️ The emotional and societal pressures that stop women from setting them

✔️ What happens when boundaries are absent

✔️ How to communicate and reinforce your boundaries clearly and assertively—without the guilt

You’ll hear practical examples, coaching insights, and simple yet powerful strategies to help you protect your time, energy, and peace of mind.“Your needs matter just as much as anyone else’s. Saying ‘no’ is not selfish—it’s self-preservation.”
