S3 | E172: STOP Being a Doormat! How to Set Boundaries Without Guilt
Let’s talk about it, babe—why do boundaries feel so dang hard? You set one, and suddenly it’s like you just told somebody you hate puppies. You feel guilty, second-guess yourself, and end up doing the very thing you said you wouldn’t. Sound familiar?
Spoiler alert: Setting boundaries isn’t just about saying no—it’s about unlearning deep-rooted beliefs that keep you stuck in overcommitment and exhaustion.
In this episode, we’re breaking down:
✅ The real reason you feel guilty after setting boundaries.
✅ How to stop people-pleasing without feeling like a villain.
✅ The “CKC” method for setting boundaries that stick.
✅ The mindset shifts that make holding boundaries way easier.
✅ A powerful action step to start reclaiming your energy today.
This episode is your permission slip to stop over-explaining, stop overcommitting, and start standing firm in your peace. Let’s get into it!
