What happens when you realize you've spent years building a life around everyone else's expectations...and quietly lost touch with yourself?

In this episode of Permission Slip-Ups, Kate and David sit down with boundaries coach Barb Nangle for an honest conversation about identity, self-worth, and the courage to live in alignment with who you really are.

Barb shares the deeply personal experiences that led her to confront a lifetime of people-pleasing and self-abandonment. What followed wasn't simply learning to say "no." It was discovering how healthy boundaries, personal values, and self-awareness can transform the way we relate to ourselves and everyone around us.

Together, they explore questions many of us eventually face:

• Why do we struggle to put ourselves on our own priority list? • How do we stop seeking approval and start trusting ourselves? • What role do our values play in creating a life that feels authentic? • Why does change often feel uncomfortable, even when it's healthy? • How can something as simple as pausing before we respond change everything?

Whether you're navigating a life transition, questioning what's next, or simply longing to feel more connected to yourself, this conversation offers practical insights and thoughtful reflection—not easy answers.

Sometimes the greatest permission slip we can give ourselves is the courage to become who we've been all along.
