Episode Details

You've heard it a thousand times: set better boundaries. But what about the boundaries you can't see? The ones inside your own head, around the stories you tell yourself, or around your ability to actually receive the support you're desperately craving?

As I am nearing maternity leave, I want to pull back the curtain on three boundary breakdowns that showed up in my life recently—and what they revealed about how we actually protect our energy, creativity, and capacity to lead.

In this episode:

• The invisible boundary: recognizing when old fears are quietly running the show (and a practice for soothing them without pushing them away)
• Why receiving support feels harder than giving it—and what that resistance is really protecting
• The ask that sounds casual but isn't—and how to honor your expertise without guilt or apology
