When you’ve spent most of your life saying yes — setting boundaries can feel uncomfortable, even selfish. But learning to protect your time and energy isn’t about pushing people away. It’s about creating space for what truly matters.

In this episode, Christine and Arianna dive deep into the art of boundaries: how to recognize when you need them, communicate them clearly, and hold them with confidence (even when people push back).
