About this listen
Setting boundaries doesn’t have to feel cold, confrontational, or guilt-ridden. In this episode, Marilyn explores how to create boundaries that protect your energy while still honoring who you are. This conversation reframes boundaries as acts of self-respect—not rejection—and offers gentle, realistic ways to set limits without over-explaining or shutting people out.
If you’ve ever avoided boundaries because you didn’t want to disappoint others or create conflict, this episode offers a calmer, more sustainable approach.
In This Episode, You’ll Hear About:
- Why boundaries often feel uncomfortable or “harsh”
- The difference between walls and healthy boundaries
- How unclear boundaries lead to resentment and burnout
- Recognizing where you’re stretching past your capacity
- Quiet, compassionate ways to protect your energy
Reflection Questions:
- Where in my life do I feel most drained right now?
- What am I giving too much of without realizing it?
- What small boundary could support me this week?
Listener Reminder:
Boundaries don’t make you difficult.
They make you sustainable.
