Boundaries, Friendship and the Fear of Disappointing People

Have you ever found yourself saying yes when you desperately wanted to say no?

Many people believe they struggle with setting boundaries, but the truth is often much deeper. The real challenge isn't the boundary itself—it's the fear of disappointing others, being judged, rejected, or losing relationships.

In this episode, Glenn explores why healthy boundaries are one of the most important forms of self-respect, how people-pleasing can quietly lead to resentment and burnout, and why real friendships are strengthened—not destroyed—by honest communication. If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's happiness while neglecting your own wellbeing, this episode will challenge you to rethink what healthy relationships really look like.

In This Episode:

• Why most people don't actually struggle with boundaries
• The hidden link between boundaries and self-worth
• How people-pleasing leads to burnout and resentment
• Why healthy friendships can survive an honest "no"
• The difference between boundaries and walls
• How accountability applies to your relationships
• Practical questions to help you identify where stronger boundaries are needed
