If you’ve ever whispered “sure, no problem” while every cell in your body screamed “absolutely not,” this episode is for you.

This week, Ash dives into midlife boundaries — why they feel so hard, why your nervous system panics when you try to set them, and how to say what you actually mean without guilt, drama, or emotional hangovers.

Inside the episode you’ll learn:
• Why perimenopause actually lowers your tolerance for chaos
• How people-pleasing becomes a lifelong reflex
• The 4-part “Say It Out Loud” framework you can use today
• Scripts for family, work, volunteering, friendships, and partners
• How to hold a boundary without collapsing afterward

This is your permission slip to stop over-functioning and start honouring your capacity. Kindness + clarity = better relationships. Let’s practice together.
