In this episode of The Midlife Crisis Hotline, Phyllie and Nicky dive deep into the tricky world of boundaries—why they’re hard to set, how to stick to them, and why they’re essential for maintaining healthy relationships. From childhood lessons (or lack thereof) to learning from Gen Z’s firm stance on personal space, they explore the challenges of saying "no" without guilt.

They also tackle a tough truth—people-pleasers often attract those who push limits. Nicky shares eye-opening insights on how setting even small boundaries can help weed out manipulators early, whether in dating, friendships, or family dynamics.

Tune in for honest conversations, personal stories, and a few laughs as they navigate midlife with newfound confidence—one boundary at a time.
