Join Laini Gray and I as we explore the vital skill of boundary setting for women in midlife. Together, we dive deep into why maintaining healthy boundaries becomes increasingly important during midlife transitions and how the ability to say “no” can be the most powerful “yes” you can give yourself.

Drawing from both our personal experiences and scientific research, I offer practical strategies for establishing and maintaining boundaries without guilt. Our conversation addresses common challenges, such as people-pleasing tendencies, the fear of disappointment, and the impact of cultural expectations on women’s ability to set boundaries.

In this episode, we explore…

  • How to recognize the signs of healthy versus unhealthy boundaries in your life.
  • Practical techniques for communicating boundaries effectively without over-explaining or apologizing.
  • Why boundary setting becomes particularly crucial during midlife transitions.
  • Actionable steps for dealing with pushback when establishing new boundaries.
