Have you ever said yes when your entire body was screaming no? That seemingly small moment of self-betrayal is exactly where our transformation begins.
In this deeply personal and practical episode, we dive into the journey from being a perpetual people-pleaser to becoming what I call a "Boundary Badass." I share the Saturday afternoon that broke me - when a quick favor for a friend turned into three hours of life-draining work while I smiled through gritted teeth, only to drive home drowning in resentment. That day changed everything.
We explore why "nice girl programming" runs so deep, starting with childhood lessons about sharing toys we weren't done playing with and smiling through discomfort. The truth is stark: harmony purchased through self-abandonment isn't harmony at all—it's a hostage situation where you're both the captive and the one paying the ransom.
The heart of this episode is my three-step boundary blueprint that has transformed thousands of women's lives: know your limits by identifying your consistent energy drains, state them simply without apologies or explanations, and hold the line when faced with inevitable pushback. I also share my seven-day Boundary Badass training plan with daily actionable steps to build your boundary-setting muscles.
Your body already knows when a boundary is being crossed—that chest-tightening, stomach-dropping feeling isn't anxiety; it's wisdom. Learn to read these physical cues and respond from your truth rather than your conditioning.
Ready to stop performing niceness and start living freely? Listen now, and take the challenge to say one guilt-free no this week. Remember to subscribe, leave a review, and tag me to share your boundary wins. The world doesn't need a quieter version of you—it needs the bold, blazing, fully expressed you that emerges when you protect your peace.
