One of the major challenges people face when trying to set boundaries is dealing with the unhappiness and pushback from others. It can be so difficult, especially if you've spent much of your life being a people-pleaser and putting others' feelings above your own.

In this episode, I'll share one of the most important things to remember as you consider setting a boundary. I’ll also talk about how and why setting boundaries often feels so uncomfortable, sometimes even after you've done a lot of healing work. I'll share tips on how to honor your own needs, wants, and feelings without judging yourself.

Have you ever felt guilty, selfish or scared about setting boundaries? This episode is for you and I’d love to hear about your experience.

There's a video going around on TikTok asking the question "Would you rather run into a bear or a man in the woods?" It has sparked a really interesting… and affirming, yet alarming conversation. Today, I want to dive into that from a bit of a different angle.

For survivors of sexual trauma or harassment, there is so much self-doubt around trusting our instincts and deciding if our feelings of unease are valid or if we are overreacting. In this episode, I'll discuss how, regardless of history, we are shaped by experience, uncertainty, and fear and offer insight for navigating these complex emotions.
