Episode 74: Offended? Check your boundaries


Listen Later

Bitterness isn’t just emotional noise—it’s a message.

In this episode, we’re unpacking the idea that offense is trying to tell you something. That lingering frustration or replayed conversation? It’s not just about what they did—it’s often about a boundary you haven’t named yet.

When you learn to dig for the data, offense becomes a clue—not a character flaw.

Ask yourself:

  • What emotion am I actually feeling right now?
  • What boundary of mine may have been crossed?
  • Did I override my internal “no” to avoid discomfort or please someone?
  • What does this tell me about what I value… or how we’re different?
  • What does this reveal about my needs or my limits?
  • What’s one small adjustment that would help my heart?

If you want to stop stewing and start getting clear, this episode is your roadmap.
