You asked for it, and I’m delivering, the long-awaited return of my amazing wife, Sharon, to The Big Gay Overalls Podcast! This time, we’re diving into a topic close to both our hearts: boundaries.
How do we set them? How do we navigate tricky family relationships? And why is choosing ourselves sometimes the hardest (but most necessary) thing to do? Sharon, our resident counsellor, shares her wisdom on estrangement, cultural shifts in family expectations, and why “blood is thicker than water” isn’t always the healthiest mantra to live by.
We also get real about our own experiences with family dynamics, cutting ties when necessary, and the power of self-awareness in making choices that align with our values. If you’ve ever struggled with setting boundaries, feeling guilty for prioritising yourself, or untangling from toxic relationships, this episode is for you.
💡 Takeaways:
✔ Why boundaries aren’t selfish, they’re essential.
✔ How to identify when a relationship isn’t serving you.
✔ The difference between conscious disconnection and reactive cut-offs.
✔ Why “family” isn’t just about DNA, it’s about love, respect, and mutual care.
Join us for an honest, heartfelt, and (as always) slightly cheeky conversation about protecting your peace, living authentically, and making room for relationships that truly nourish you.
