Setting Boundaries: Protecting Your Time, Energy, and Attention with Meg Trucano

In this powerful episode of the Societygal Podcast, our host sits down with Meg Trucano, a former psychology PhD who left the corporate world after experiencing burnout. Now a coach, Meg shares essential insights on setting healthy boundaries, overcoming people-pleasing tendencies, and protecting your most valuable resources as an entrepreneur: time, energy, and attention.
