“The truth is that their reaction to your boundaries is not your responsibility. You have to be able to do what is right for you and tolerate how other people feel about it.” – Terri Cole

Intro

Are you the go-to person in your family, always fixing, supporting, and listening — but feeling drained? In this episode, we’ll explore how to create boundaries without losing connection, and why boundaries are key to protecting your peace.

I’ll share my own story of stepping out of the “family fixer” role, the pushback I faced, and the identity shift that came with it. You’ll learn practical ways to set emotional boundaries that honor both you and your relationships.

It’s time to stop over-functioning, protect your energy, and build healthier, more balanced connections through clear and compassionate boundaries.
