In today’s episode, Colleen shares a powerful one-on-one coaching conversation with a client who was dreading a weekend trip with her judgmental, high-maintenance mother-in-law. What started as a fear of overdrinking turned into something much deeper—a real-time lesson in emotional ownership, boundaries, and what it means to become unfuckwithable.

This episode isn’t about family dynamics—it’s about taking your power back. If you’ve ever agreed to something just to avoid conflict and ended up feeling resentful, this is for you.

You’ll walk away with practical language, new scripts, and the mindset shift that will help you stop outsourcing your emotional well-being to other people’s moods.

 

 

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Feeling trapped isn’t a fact—it’s a sign you haven’t fully claimed your power of choice.

• Boundaries are about what you will do, not about controlling others.

• Being “unfuckwithable” doesn’t mean you don’t care—it means you stop performing to keep the peace.

• You don’t need to change other people’s reactions to feel okay.

• Resentment is often a sign that you said yes when you meant no.
