Boundaries That Feel Safe: Stop People Pleasing and Rebuild Self Trust with Barb Nangle


Listen Later

In this episode of Inner Peace, Better Health host Sayan sits down with boundaries coach Barb Nangle to reframe boundaries as internal safety, not just “saying no.” If your body panics when you try to set limits, this conversation shows you how to stay grounded without overexplaining or guilt-spiraling.

This is for anyone who feels responsible for everyone else’s emotions, struggles with people pleasing, or keeps abandoning themselves to keep the peace. You will learn how to start small, reduce shame, and build boundaries you can actually hold.

About the Guest:

Barb Nangle is a boundaries coach who learned boundary-building through twelve-step recovery. She hosts the podcast “Fragmented to Whole: Life Lessons from Twelve Step Recovery,” with 330+ episodes.

Key Takeaways:
  • Use “Let me get back to you” to avoid pressured yeses.

  • Build self-trust by aligning boundaries with your top values.

  • Start with boundaries with yourself before harder relationships.

  • Choose temporary discomfort that leads to healing, not endless burnout.

  • Handle pushback calmly with repeat, reset, and follow-through.
