Setting boundaries doesn't make you selfish—it helps you stop people-pleasing, release guilt, and protect your peace with calm confidence. 

Do you feel guilty saying no or worry that setting boundaries will disappoint others? In this video, we explore why people-pleasing creates unhealthy patterns and how Taoist wisdom can help you set healthy boundaries without anger, conflict, or self-doubt. You’ll learn how to communicate with calm clarity, build self-respect, and create relationships based on honesty instead of approval.

With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).
