Do you struggle to set boundaries without feeling guilty or looking uncommitted?

Setting boundaries is not about being rigid or saying no to everything—it’s about creating space to lead strategically and effectively.

In this episode, I share how boundaries transformed my leadership, enhanced my executive presence, and empowered me to focus on what truly matters.

If you’re a corporate woman leader who often feels overwhelmed, undervalued, or afraid of being perceived as uncommitted, this episode will resonate deeply.

Tune in to find out:

  • How overcommitting leads to overwhelm and burnout.
  • Why setting boundaries positions you as an inspiring leader and role model.
  • Learn how to say no confidently without damaging relationships.
  • How to handle last-minute requests and “shiny object” projects
  • Practical tips to hold yourself accountable to your boundaries
