We hear a lot about setting boundaries. What we hear less about is how to know what your boundary even is, especially when you've spent years prioritizing everyone else's needs over your own.

In this episode Rebecca and Meredith reframe boundaries entirely: not as walls or ultimatums, but as acts of self-knowledge and honesty. They talk about what happens to relationships when we say yes and mean no, how to recognize your body's signals, and why slowing down is the only way to get there.

Try this: think of one clear yes in your body. Think of one clear no. Notice the difference.

Be curious. Be kind. Start with yourself.
