About this listen

Have you ever felt drained by certain family members who seem to take and take without giving anything in return? You're not alone. This episode dives into the challenging realm of what Coach Tony calls "human leeches" – those people in our lives who consistently deplete our emotional and sometimes financial resources.

We explore the delicate balance between showing Christian love and establishing necessary boundaries. Starting with forgiveness as the foundation, we discuss practical steps to address these challenging relationships: having honest conversations about how their actions affect you, gradually reducing what you give to those who only take, and clearly establishing boundaries that protect your wellbeing. Through personal stories and biblical wisdom from Ephesians 4:32, Proverbs 26:4-5, and Romans 8:14, Coach Tony offers a roadmap for maintaining your peace without harboring resentment.

This isn't about cutting people off – it's about creating a healthy distance that allows you to live your best life while still extending compassion. Whether you're dealing with family members who don't respect your boundaries, friends who consistently cross lines, or coworkers who take advantage of your generosity, this episode provides faith-based solutions for real-life relationship battles. Because you deserve relationships that build you up rather than drain you dry. Join us for this powerful conversation about loving difficult people from a distance while protecting your God-given peace and purpose.
