Tenderoni Hotline #42: What happens when you finally set a boundary you've been terrified to say out loud, only to have someone ignore it completely? And how do you know when you're stuck in a victim mindset that's keeping you from creating the life and relationships you want?In this episode, I answer two listener questions about boundaries, accountability, and nervous system healing.First, we explore what it really means when someone walks through a boundary you've clearly communicated. If boundaries aren't meant to control other people's behavior, then what are they actually for? And what do you do next when someone shows you they aren't willing to respect your limits?Then we dive into victim mindset as a nervous system strategy. We'll talk about why this pattern develops, how it can keep us feeling powerless, and practical ways to build more agency, responsibility, and self-trust without shame or self-blame.Got a question for the Tenderoni Hotline?

Why doesn't she just leave? It's a question survivors of domestic abuse hear again and again. But it places the focus in entirely the wrong place. Laura interviews Grace Stuart, survivor and host of Why She Stayed podcast, to examine how coercive control can develop gradually - and why it can be so difficult to recognise when you're living inside it. Grace was just 20 when she met her former partner, who was 14 years older. What initially felt intense and intoxicating became a complex spider's web of grooming, manipulation and control. Grace shares how apparent honesty and vulnerability built trust, while her boundaries were crossed incrementally and each violation explained away. Laura unpacks the pattern: the love bombing, age and power imbalance, gaslighting, isolation, sexual coercion and the gradual erosion of Grace's trust in her own instincts. They also explore how addiction became an explanation for behaviour that Grace did not yet have the language to identify as domestic abuse. Laura and Grace discuss: Grooming, love bombing and accelerated intimacy Age and power imbalances Boundary testing and incremental erosion Gaslighting and self-doubt Isolation and dependency Sexual coercion and violence Addiction versus abusive behaviour Why recognising the pattern matters The question isn't why did she stay? It's what did he do that made staying make sense? #GraceStewart #WhySheStayed #CoerciveControl #DomesticAbuse #DomesticViolence #SurvivorVoices #SurvivorStories #TraumaBond #EmotionalAbuse #PsychologicalAbuse #SexualCoercion #ReproductiveCoercion #PowerAndControl #AbuseIsAPattern #TrustYourInstincts #CrimeAnalyst #LauraRichards #BehaviouralAnalysis #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #Podcast More from Grace Stuart Why She Stayed Podcast on Spotify Why She Stayed Podcast on Apple Instagram Clip https://fb.watch/Jgz69E5Y1u/ Thank You to the Crime Analyst Sponsor Who Make the Show Possible.

We are experiencing burnout, so we fantasize about leaving it all behind. What does this mean, and how can we find the middle way to achieve balance, boundaries, and ultimately a happy and content life? It turns out it's normal to fantasize about packing it all in, ditching the corporate grind, and running away to live in a tree with the squirrels. Rather than just daydreaming about abandoning all our adult responsibilities, we explore how to bring that elusive "cabin in the woods" peace directly into our messy, everyday lives. We break down practical ways to reclaim your time and sanity so you don't actually have to leave society to find your peace.Get the full show notes, show references, and more information here: https://www.insideoutmoney.org/178-burnout-boundaries-balance-middle-way/

Dependable. Reliable. Accommodating. Do these words describe you? Often seen as positive attributes, our need to embody these traits can sometimes lead to overcommitment and burnout. Bridgette and Lindsey talk through how constant overexertion for others can leave us with nothing for ourselves at the end of the day; how resentment can appear in our lives; and how boundaries can allow relationships to thrive.Key TakeawaysSurvival mode looks different for everybody and includes being overproductive or constantly flexible for others' needs over our own.Generational, cultural, and learned behavior contributes to our belief that productivity and dependability overshadow a person's need for relaxation.In professional settings, burnout can feel like a personal failure or shameful, making workplace culture on mental health integral to organizational wellbeing.Resentment due to stress looks different for everyone, including annoyance, flattened emotional response, and simply saying “yes” instead of assessing capacity.Boundary-setting does not limit a relationship or someone's commitment; it allows breathing room for everyone to communicate transparently about needs and space.Resources Mentioned“Employers need to focus on workplace burnout: Here's why” by American Psychological Association, 12 May 2023.Denise Albieri Jodas Salvagioni et al. “Physical, psychological and occupational consequences of job burnout: A systematic review of prospective studies”, PloS One vol. 12(10), 4 Oct. 2017.Connect and Learn More☑️ Bridgette Stumpf | LinkedIn☑️ Lindsey Silverberg | LinkedIn☑️ Volare | LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook☑️ Subscribe to the TraumaTies newsletter ☑️ TraumaTies Website | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | SpotifyBrought to you by Volare, TraumaTies: Untangling Societal Harm & Healing After Crime is a podcast that creates space and conversations to dissect the structural and systemic knots that keep us from addressing trauma.Rooted in a belief that survivors of crime deserve respect for their dignity in the aftermath of victimization, Volare seeks to empower survivors by informing them of all of the options available and working to transform existing response systems to be more inclusive of the diverse needs that survivors often have after crime.Volare also provides free, holistic, and comprehensive advocacy, therapeutic, and legal services to survivors of all crime types.

Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman
We all know what it feels like when someone violates our boundaries but how do we know when we are the boundary violator? Have you ever... offered unsolicited advice? Gossiped? Said what you would do if you were in someone’s situation? Asked personal questions? Interrupted someone in the middle of a conversation? Touched someone’s hair? Touched someone on the shoulder? Asked a coworker where they lived? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you, like most of us, have been a boundary violator. In today’s throwback episode, Terri and Dom take us through multiple situations (including current events from pop culture and a subscriber question) in which we may be unintentionally invading someone’s personal space and offer us tips on how to navigate those situations.

Narcissists don't lack empathy, they use it as a tool. This summary reveals the surprising truth about their manipulation.
This week we're discussing Courage to Set a Boundary: Most solo parents aren't avoiding boundaries because they don't care. They're avoiding them because the relationships that need the boundaries are also the ones they depend on most. The co-parent they need to cooperate with. The family member their kid loves. The boss they can't afford to lose. And so the line goes undrawn, the cost gets absorbed, and somewhere along the way you stop noticing how much it's taking from you. Robert Beeson, Founder & CEO of Solo Parent, sits down with Elizabeth Cole, single parent, and Marissa Lee, author and single parent, and each of them brings a real situation to the table. Not a theoretical one. Elizabeth's summer this year was derailed by a boundary she didn't set early enough. Marissa learned the hard way what years of staying silent actually costs. Robert found out that shutting everyone out isn't the same thing as having boundaries. What comes out of it is practical, honest, and closer to home than most of us would like to admit. Key Insights from This Episode: Setting boundaries starts with two honest questions: What do I feel, and what do I need? These two questions cut through the noise and give you the language for what a boundary actually needs to look like — not in theory, but in the specific situation in front of you. Fear and wisdom can lead to the same action, but only one of them will hold. A boundary set from panic or exhaustion tends to swing to extremes. One set from an honest assessment of what you're protecting tends to stick. Knowing which one you're operating from changes everything. Courage in boundary-setting doesn't always look like a hard conversation — sometimes it's a quiet internal decision. Especially in volatile co-parenting situations, the most powerful move is often the one nobody else sees. Deciding what you won't engage with, what you won't say, what you won't let go further. That's a boundary too.

You've been told to be an empathetic, open-door, servant leader who puts everyone else first. In this episode, executive coach Lauren LeMunyan explains why that advice is quietly burning leaders out, and gives you a better model built on core values, not self-sacrifice. You'll learn: ✅ Why boundaries have to be tied to your core values to actually stick ✅ The exact language to use when a boss or client crosses a line after hours ✅ Why "people should just know" is the #1 boundary myth ✅ How to spot the moment you've stepped outside your own scope ✅ Why saying yes to everything is a fast track to resentment and burnout If you've ever hung up a call feeling stretched thin and wondering how you got talked into it again, this episode is your reset.

Send us Fan MailI Banned Phones Before My State Did. Here Is What Actually Happened.Twenty-six states now have laws requiring schools to ban or restrict student cellphone use, and twenty-two of those laws passed in 2025 alone. Florida passed the first one in May 2023. Utah's bell-to-bell ban took effect July 1, 2026. New Jersey's statewide policy takes effect this September. Public support is strong and bipartisan, with 74 percent of American adults backing phone bans during class according to Pew Research.And a 2025 University of Southern California study found that most students are still using their phones during the school day anyway.M.A. Aponte is the executive director of a charter school in Gainesville, Florida. He wrote and implemented a phone policy at his school before the state of Florida required one, which means he has been living with this longer than almost anyone covering it.In this episode he makes an argument that is almost entirely missing from the national conversation: phones are not primarily a distraction problem. He watched students pressure other students into physical fights specifically so the fights could be recorded. Those fights did not happen and then get filmed. They happened because they could be filmed. The phone did not divert behavior. It created behavior that would not otherwise have happened.That reframes a phone ban from an academic policy into a safety policy.WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERSThe current state of school phone legislation, including which states have bell-to-bell bans, which leave it to districts, and what the early research from Harvard Kennedy School actually shows.The three distinct problems phones create in a school building: attention, integrity, and incentive. Why the third one is the most serious and the least discussed.Why phone bans fail. Rules with holes that students find in the first week. Inconsistent enforcement, where one adult who does not enforce does not create one weak classroom but a weak school. Consequences that exist on paper and never in practice. And confusing removing the option with building the skill.THE BELL TEST, a four-question framework for evaluating any school phone policy: B. BOUNDARY. Does the rule have holes students can find? E. ENFORCEMENT. Does every adult enforce it identically, every time? L. LEVERAGE. Are consequences real, escalating, and actually executed? L. LEARNING. Are we building self-regulation or just removing the option?Aponte also addresses the most common parent objection directly, which is emergency communication, and explains what he got wrong in his own school's first year of enforcement.FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: How many states ban cellphones in schools? A: As of 2026, twenty-six states have laws requiring school districts to ban or limit student cellphone use, with twenty-two of those laws enacted in 2025 alone. Florida passed the first statewide school phone ban in May 2023. States with the strictest bell-to-bell bans, meaning phones must be off and stored for the entire school day, include Texas, New York, Virginia, Louisiana, Alabama, Nebraska, and Utah. Other states including California, Minnesota, and Ohio require districts to create policies but allow local flexibility. New Jersey's statewide policy takes effect in the 2026-27 school year. Q: Do school phone bans actually work? A: Early evidence is mixed. Harvard Kennedy School researchers report that preliminary findings suggest possible long-term benefits for learning outcomes and absenteeism, and teachers consistently report improved focus and fewer disruptions. However, a 2025 University of Southern California study found compliance remains uneven and most students continue using phones during the school day regardless of restrictions. According to charter school director M.A. Aponte, the determining factor is not the ban itself but whether enforcement is consistent across every adult in the building and whether consequences are real and actually executed. Q: Why do school phone bans fail? A: Four common reasons. First, the rule has holes, such as allowing phones between classes or at lunch, which teaches students the rule is situational. Second, enforcement is inconsistent, and because students identify which adults enforce and which do not within days, a single non-enforcing adult undermines the policy building-wide. Third, consequences are not real or are written but never executed, which proves to students that the policy is theater. Fourth, schools confuse removing the phone with teaching self-regulation, leaving students unprepared when they graduate into environments where no one takes the device away. Q: Are phones a safety problem in schools, not just a distraction? A: Charter school director M.A. Aponte argues the distraction framing is incomplete. He has observed students pressuring other students into physical fights specifically so the fights could be recorded, meaning the phone did not divert existing behavior but created an incentive for violence that would not otherwise have existed. Phones also enable exam cheating at scale, since a photographed test can be distributed to every student taking it later that day. This reframes phone policy from an academic issue into a safety issue. Q: What about emergencies? Should students have phones to contact parents? A: This is the most common parent objection to school phone bans. The counterargument from school leaders is that during an actual emergency, students on phones spread panic and misinformation and divert attention from the adult giving safety instructions. A student on a phone during a crisis is generally less safe, not more. Schools implementing bans are expected to maintain a reliable direct channel for communicating with families during emergencies that does not depend on student devices. Q: What questions should parents ask about their school's phone policy? A: Five questions. Is the rule bell to bell or are there times phones are allowed? What is the actual consequence for a first, second, and third violation? Is it enforced identically by every teacher? What does the school teach about self-regulation rather than only what it forbids? And in an emergency, how will the school communicate with families without relying on student phones?Support the showAbout the host: M.A. Aponte is a former JPMorgan banker, former Merrill Lynch wealth manager, former NYPD officer, Army Officer, and Executive Director of a Charter School in Florida.

False allegations, an unmarried father with no custody rights, and a newborn taken across the country — this is a survival playbook for high-conflict custody battles. If you're searching for help with divorce, child custody, high-conflict co-parenting, or parental alienation, this conversation puts real language around what you're living and how to respond without self-destructing.A week after his son is born, Ajdin comes home to an empty apartment: furniture gone, kitchen stripped, and his newborn gone across the country. Then comes the gut-punch — under Dutch law, an unmarried father has no custody by default; the mother holds it alone. What follows is a long, high-conflict custody battle: supervised visits, relocations, financial pressure, and a steady drip of manufactured accusations built to paint him as dangerous and unstable.We unpack how fathers get trapped by the "keep it civil" instinct, why unreciprocated flexibility backfires, and the red flags that signal control instead of cooperation. Ajdin shares what it felt like to face false allegations — even "evidence" that involved coaching a small child — and the counterweight that actually moves the needle in family court: calm execution, a forensic paper trail, and a team that can translate chaos into strategy.Then we get into his most useful framework: a game-theory approach to boundaries he calls tit for tat. Start cooperative, enforce the limit the instant it's crossed, then return to cooperation the moment the other parent does — without reliving old battles. It's not about being nice or winning arguments. It's about building a stable operating system for parenting time and decision-making while you protect your nervous system through "practiced calm" — tactics like killing message notifications and never replying in the heat of the moment.In this episode: unmarried fathers' custody rights · how to respond to false allegations in family court · the "keep it civil" trap · red flags of a controlling co-parent · building a forensic paper trail · the tit-for-tat boundary system · practiced calm under high conflict.

On the morning of December 20, 1879, a Cree trapper named Swift Runner stood on a scaffold in Alberta and waited in the cold, because the hangman had forgotten the straps and had to go back for them. He had already confessed. He had already walked the police out to a clearing in the bush and shown them what was left of his family, and his explanation never changed across four months in custody. Something came into him that winter, and it made him hungry in a way that food could not answer. The men who tried him did not believe in that thing and the men who guarded him did, and both groups agreed on the physical facts, which were a camp 25 miles from a post that was issuing rations, a cooking pot, bones cracked open at the ends, and one man who walked out of those woods in the spring heavier than he went in.The road trip turns north in January, and this stop is different from the others.The wendigo is not a cryptid with a gift shop. It comes out of the traditions of living Algonquian-speaking peoples, and in northern Minnesota that means the Anishinaabe, whose seven nations in this state are governments with citizens, not historical footnotes. So we spend a few honest minutes on what the old accounts actually describe before we go anywhere near a sighting, and it turns out to be almost the opposite of what has been sold to you.There are no antlers. The deer skull came out of concept art in the last 20 years. What the tradition describes is something starving, with the skin drawn tight over the bones and the eyes sunk back in the sockets, that grows in exact proportion to whatever it eats so that the arithmetic never breaks in its favor and it is never one bite closer to full than it was when it started. And it is not only something out in the timber.It is something a person can become.Then we go into the woods, and we stay there. Ray heard his own name spoken through the spruce four miles from the nearest road on a trapline nobody ran but him, and he answered out loud and was walking toward it before he had decided to. Marlys followed a child crying in a tamarack swamp and covered 60 yards without the sound ever coming one foot closer. Dale and Ron met in the middle of the timber a quarter mile apart, each one having heard the other call his name, and looked down at four inches of fresh snow holding nothing but their own two trails. Faye was 11 years old when her mother's voice started calling her in from the yard of a cabin on the Bigfork River, and the fear did not arrive until about 30 years later. Wayne opened the door of a fish house on the ice at two in the morning after somebody outside politely said come here, and found open snow under a moon in every direction. Lonnie lay in a wheelhouse north of Deer River and counted the footsteps of whatever walked past him at 40 feet, and walked the interval out himself at first light.Delores was taught as a small child on the Red Lake reservation not to look at the treeline, not to run, to hold her pace, and to say out loud to an adult what had happened, and the same instruction turns up from Manitoba to Michigan in communities that never compared notes. Gordon watched something stand past his woodpile at 35 yards in the gray before deer season light, went in for a rifle, and signed his share of that hunting camp over to his brother's boys without ever explaining why.Kenny came through the door eight seconds behind his brother into an empty yard with fresh snow and no track under the window, and they sold the shack four years later. Verna gave up a bedroom after three February nights of something dragging along the outside wall at waist height, 20 seconds down and 20 seconds back, with a full minute of pause in between. Orval watched something cross a burn scar for two minutes through binoculars from a staffed fire tower in the Superior, called it in on the radio, and would not answer when the man on the other end asked him what it was.Sam and Wes heard a scream in the Boundary Waters at two in the morning that ran longer than a lung should allow and never broke for breath, and then heard it again from a different position. Andrea's whole body turned before her mind did on a February trail outside Ely, and she still snowshoes and no longer does that trail alone.Tara has worked out how fast something would have to move to cover the ground it covered in 90 seconds, and she does not say the number out loud.The turn to sasquatch is a real one and the episode explains it rather than assuming it, because Anishinaabe tradition carries a separate word for the hairy man of the woods and he is not made by cannibalism and does not eat anybody. That opens up a Minnesota record almost nobody outside the state discusses. Remer in Cass County, where the town's founder described tracks much bigger than a man's and sunk deep into the earth, where the old accounts talk about whole families of them and a stretch of Big Sand Lake that people left alone out of courtesy, and where a trail camera caught something in October 2009. The Vergas Trails in Otter Tail County and the Hairy Man, running since the late 1960s, including two 12-year-old cousins on a snowmobile in 1972.A researcher out of Moorhead who found nine published Minnesota sightings when he started looking and spent his life demonstrating how badly incomplete that number was. Tracks crossing a frozen lake in a single line with a stride over four feet. A bear bait barrel worked 40 yards off its tree with the chain still whole. A deer wedged nine feet up a maple with no claw marks on the bark and no blood in the leaves underneath.And the report this state produces more than any other, which is not a monster standing in a road at all, but a line of tracks that came out of the treeline, crossed a yard, stopped 10 feet from the back window, and turned around, left for a woman who had been standing at that sink in the night with the kitchen light on.Email BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteHave you experienced a Bigfoot sighting, Sasquatch encounter, Dogman experience, UFO sighting, or any unexplained cryptid or paranormal event deep in the woods?

Quick update episode before I head out to walk the Camino! A few episodes ago, I told you about coming off my medication and sleep aids, the brain zaps, and the nights I barely slept.Here's where things landed: I'm fully off everything, sleeping better than I have in months, and I'm sharing exactly what worked.I'm also telling you about the day I broke my own rule, paid for it until 12:30am, and what I did the next morning — because that part is the whole lesson. If you've ever blown a boundary with alcohol and used it as a reason to give up on the whole thing, this one's for you. In this episode, you'll learn: The full update on coming off sleep aids and medication, including the last little crutch I didn't even realize I was using The two simple changes that made the biggest difference in my sleep What happened the day I broke my own caffeine boundary (and why it felt exactly like drinking) How to get back to a boundary after you break it, without the shame spiral or the "I'll start Monday" trap Why your body knows how to get back to baseline when you stop interfering Quick reminder: this is my personal experience with medication. Always talk to your doctor before starting or stopping anything.Also, I recommend you listen to 'How to Stop Talking Yourself Out of It When It Gets Uncomfortable' before you listen to this one, to get the full context!

Faith Salie joins us to close out our Season 6 in the TALF-iest way possible: We took our very first episode, where she was our very first guest, and gave it a glow up by reediting and remixing it to bring it back to you here and now. We begin with Faith catching us up on her family and life happenings and then we dive back into Episode #1 all pretty and shiny and (kinda) new(ish). Here's the description from the original first episode: CBS Sunday Morning's Faith Salie joins me to talk the good in protesting. For her family, protesting has gone to a whole new level and it all started when she dared to have a lock installed on her bedroom door. Warning: Do not ever cross an 8 year old and a 6 year old. Faith Salie is the author of ‘Approval Junkie,' which she's also taken to the stage as her own one woman show, and she can also be heard on NPR on Wait, Wait…Don't Tell Me.

Husband Help Haven Podcast: Marriage Advice for Men Facing Separation, Affair or Divorce
Boundaries are taught as a property line, enforced by a consequence, triggered by how you feel. Almost nothing is taught about lifting one. In Part 1 of this two-part episode I lay out the four things that go wrong in how boundaries are commonly taught, and why a tool meant to protect a marriage keeps getting used to end it. Part 2 is the framework.

Welcome to our new game show, Name...That...Boundary! Okay not really, but if you leave personal boundaries up to a game of chance (or expecting others to mind read), it's easy to see why resentment and frustration might appear often.In this episode, Briana clarifies the role of boundaries and why they MUST be named in order to have the chance to be respected. You're not alone if this is a struggle, and she explores why it can sometimes be hard to name boundaries.Website: brianaleach.comIG and FB: @brianaleachlpc
Georgetown OC Jarrell Flores Breaks Down the Boundary and Field Glance RPOCoach Jarrell Flores, offensive coordinator at Georgetown High School in Texas, joins the Board Drill Podcast to break down the RPO concept that has become the foundation of Georgetown's explosive pass game. Coach Flo walks through how reading the boundary safety on the glance route opened up the offense, why it pairs directly with their wide zone run game, and how they have adapted it across personnel groupings, formations, and coverage shells for the last two seasons.Inside this episode, Coach Flo covers the origin of the read, the pre-snap and post-snap process his quarterback goes through, how the concept holds up against one-high, two-high, and three-high safety structures, and how Georgetown layers motion, bunch, and stack formations to protect it from disguised coverage. He also gets into the program's culture, coaching lineage, and what has made Georgetown one of the most consistent offenses in Texas for over 20 years.Timestamps are estimated from the raw recording and may shift slightly once the final edit locks.0:00 Introduction and Coach Jarrell Flores joins the show4:01 Georgetown culture, coaching lineage, and GT DNA identity10:53 Installing the boundary and field glance RPO: reads, pre-snap keys, and route detail17:57 Bunch, stack, and split variations to protect the concept26:08 Beating one-high and three-high safety shells, marrying it to wide zone33:24 Handling the overhang defender and the levels concept answer39:59 Run game numbers, offensive line staff, and explosive play examples48:29 Answering two-high shells with checkdowns and bunch concepts55:50 Formation variety: ace, 12 personnel, and empty sets1:00:44 Live Q&A: quarters coverage, the dart run, and layering the offense1:05:30 What makes Georgetown unique: staff development, velocity-based training, and community1:09:54 Book recommendations and closing thoughtsThis episode is brought to you by Sideline HQ, equipment inventory management built for football programs.

Same burnout. Completely different costumes. Why the pressures driving a librarian, a trainee, and an entrepreneur toward burnout look nothing alike on the surface, and what leaders miss when they assume their own experience is the template. Signal: → Burnout shows up differently by role even within the same institution (physicians, nurses, residents, researchers all differ) → ED trainee burnout risk climbs with seniority, not away from it → Boundary-setting entrepreneurs: 45% report low burnout vs 6% of non-boundary-setters → Mentor/peer access linked to ~50% higher resilience Reset: → Ask, don't assume, what a hard day looks like for someone in a different role → Build cross-role listening into leadership, not just same-lane check-ins → Protect recovery time as the floor, whatever the sector → Deliberate variety across your own work can be part of your own protection

During the week after I told you about walking out of the office at four o'clock, I received a late night text from a client. And for about four seconds, I almost responded and let the whole “I need to rest” conversation from last week evaporate.That's what this episode is about.Last week we talked about giving yourself permission to rest. This week I want to talk about what allows you to rest: permission doesn't hold without a boundary behind it. You can decide, in your journal, in your car, in your own head, that rest matters. But the first time someone calls at 7 a.m., or your kid needs a ride during your one quiet hour, or a client emails “just circling back” for the third time on a Saturday — that decision gets tested. And if there's no boundary attached to it, it loses.In this episode, I'm walking through why boundaries feel like conflict for so many of us, what a boundary actually sounds like when you say it out loud, and how to hold it the first time someone pushes back — because someone always pushes back.A boundary is not a wall. It's the thing that makes the rest you fought for last week actually stick.In this episode:• Why the rest from Episode 270 doesn't survive contact with your calendar without this next step• The real reason boundaries feel like conflict when you've built your identity on being the one who handles it• How to set a boundary in one sentence — without a paragraph of justification attached• The exact language I use with clients, my team, and my own kids• What to do in the first ten seconds after someone pushes back — because they will Check out my favorite supplements and workouts that help keep me on track all year round here:https://linktr.ee/lauracatina

Send us Fan Mail Boundaries can sound like confrontation, but what we're really chasing is something quieter: internal safety. The kind of safety that shows up when we stop waiting for permission to protect our energy, when “no” stops meaning guilt and starts meaning self-trust. I sit down with Barb Nangle to unpack why healthy boundaries are not rigid walls, and how they can actually create more authentic, intimate relationships because we tell the truth about what is OK and what is not OK for us. We get practical about what boundary work looks like in real life: figuring out what you want, need, and prefer, noticing where your responsibility ends, and spotting the hidden costs of people pleasing. Barb explains how many of us look for safety in the external world approval, reputation, status and why that approach keeps us overworking and overthinking. We talk about the moment you stop doing all the labour in a friendship, how relationships can change, and why that shift can be painful but also clarifying. One of the most helpful frameworks in this conversation is the difference between the discomfort of dysfunction and the discomfort of growth. Dysfunction feels familiar and never-ending. Growth feels scary because it's unfamiliar, but it's finite and it leads to more peace. We also cover boundary pushback, simple scripts for repeating yourself without being rude, and a powerful reframe: when you slip, treat it as info, not ammo. If resentment has been creeping into your work, family, or friendships, consider this your boundary alarm. If this helps you, subscribe, share it with a friend who overcommits, and leave a review so more people can find tools for healthy boundaries, internal safety, and a calmer mind.

Pick up my new book The American Nightmare! => Click Here! In Today's Episode Welcome to Friday's episode of my podcast! We are wrapping up our massive, week-long focus on guarding the gate. Today, I am challenging you to stop being a leaf in the wind and become a rock in the mud. I am laying down my ultimate 7-day Gatekeeper Challenge to help you lock in your boundaries, and I'm sharing some personal reflections on how mastering my own "no" completely cured my anxiety. Plus, you'll hear a funny guest appearance from my son, who gets a firsthand lesson in the power of a hard "no" when he tries to hit me up for more Legos! Key Topics Discussed: The Master Recap: I bring together everything we've built this week—from the danger of being an undefended man to the difference between being nice versus discerning. Remember: discernment is your filter, your boundaries are your walls, and your "no" is your ultimate protection. The Lego Interruption: A hilarious, real-time parenting moment where my son cracks up in the studio and tries to negotiate for a new Lego set. I have to practice what I preach right then and there: "No, you don't get a Lego. You bought a Lego last night!". My Journey from "Leaf in the Wind" to "Rock in the Mud": I get deeply personal about how I used to sway back and forth, trying to please everyone, which left me filled with extreme anxiety. Today, I am completely happy, balanced, and hard to move. I share my process of checking my emotions to ensure my boundaries come from uncompromised principles, not my ego, bitterness, jealousy, or anger. My 7-Day Gatekeeper Challenge: I am issuing a direct challenge for the next seven days to build your armor: Final Takeaway:A boundary you won't defend was never a boundary—it was just a wish. Your discernment is your wisdom, and a "no" you stand on is a gift to yourself and your family. Stop letting every open gate invite an invasion into your life.

Six in the morning, and the sand is cold. That is the part nobody posts.The highlight reels from Sean Lewis's program show Snapdragon Stadium under the lights and the Warrior Shield held high. What they don't show is a defensive back on his back in wet sand before sunrise, being reminded that paradise has a price when you play at San Diego State.That's the core of SDSU, and it's led by Sean Lewis.He joined today's episode of THE DAWN, a limited series highlighting the re-imagined Pac-12, a collaboration between Y-Option and the league.I've known Coach Lewis since his days at Kent State when he was a 31 year old head coach, and it was clear then, just like it is now, that his philosophy is clear and his leadership style is one that will continue to thrive.Two and a half years ago the giant was asleep. Now it's a 9 win team, a 1st round NFL pick out the door, and a program that was in the CFP discussion last November. Coach Lewis co-signs the idea without blinking that the champion of this new Pac-12 should be playing in the postseason in December.What's underneath it all is the story behind Coach Lewis's path to wearing a whistle. He grew up on the south side of Chicago, went to Wisconsin to play quarterback and ended up at tight end. He was the head coach at Kent State by 2018, took a stop in Boulder to work with Deion Sanders, and two years ago this Midwest QB found himself leading the Aztecs out West. He didn't draw this up. Nobody could have.Life's too short to huddle, he likes to say. One might argue life's too short to plan out one's path too. We just have to be present, enjoy the ride, and compete to impact people along the way.Safe to say Sean Lewis is doing that, and much more, as San Diego State enters the new look Pac-12.Much love and stay steady, YogiY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube page.THE DAWN debuted July 1 across the Pac-12's YouTube and Pac-12 Insider, the league's 24/7 FAST channel.

In this episode, I sit down with Michelle Chalfant, holistic therapist, life coach, and creator of The Adult Chair model, whose podcast has surpassed 11 million downloads and whose work has helped thousands of people heal codependency, emotional wounds, and relationship patterns at the root. Michelle shares her five-pillar methodology for living as a healthy adult — covering how to own your reality, build self-compassion, feel your emotions, work your triggers, and set boundaries that actually stick — and we go deep on narcissism, codependency, why we keep attracting the same people, and what it actually takes to change the signal we're putting out. She also shares practical tools, free resources, and one of the funniest and most grounding stories I have heard in a long time.This one is rich, practical, and full of permission to do this work in a way that actually makes sense.Connect with Michelle:https://www.theadultchair.com/https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfantFree Course: https://courses.theadultchair.com/offers/z2vYXUwr/checkout Adult Chair Book: https://courses.theadultchair.com/the-adult-chair-book WORK WITH ME 1:1:❥Softening into self- 3 month 1:1 with Whats App Support: https://marina-yt.mykajabi.com/offers/PAWQhZHu❥❥1:1 Coaching with me: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWcZM5s9c2OjOLwoGMI5jE6rh_JAzjN2d_vCtuVe7e3pVGxw/viewformDOWNLOAD FOR FREE:Stay or Go: 5 Clarity Questions to Reconnect with Your Inner Knowing: https://marinatriner.com/stay-or-go-guideAttatchment Practice: Discover the actual blocks beneath the surface so you can actually have the deep intimacy you crave: https://marinatriner.com/attachment-practice Connect & Ground: 10 Incredible Somatic Practices for Nervous System Regulation: https://marinatriner.com/connect-and-groundAlive & Aligned: 7 Embodiment Practices For Self Connection: https://marinatriner.com/alive-and-alignedTrigger to Rooted: A step by step process of working with your triggers: https://marinatriner.com/trigger-2-rooted VIEW MY COURSES & RESOURCES:https://marinatriner.com/resources CONNECT WITH ME:Follow me on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/marinatriner/ Subscribe to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@marinatriner Top Episode Quotes:"Codependency is an identity we form when we're younger.

What happens when a coaching client does not realise that the frustration, resentment or overwhelm they are carrying is actually pointing towards a boundary that has been crossed? In this episode of The Coaching Crowd Podcast, we explore how to coach boundaries in a way that feels practical, ethical and deeply human. Boundaries can sound simple on the surface, but in coaching conversations they often reveal something much more complex. They connect to values, relationships, communication, emotions, beliefs, burnout, people pleasing and the way clients understand their own needs. We begin by reflecting on what boundaries really are. We describe them as the guidelines that help other people understand how to be in relationship with us. They communicate what we are comfortable with, what we are not comfortable with, how we want to be treated and what matters to us. Yet many of us rarely define our boundaries clearly, even for ourselves. Throughout the conversation, we explore why boundaries show up so often in coaching. A client may come to a session saying their manager keeps giving them unrealistic deadlines, or that a friend, partner or family member is asking too much of them. They may not use the word boundaries at all. Instead, they may talk about feeling angry, resentful, exhausted, overwhelmed or close to burnout. As coaches, these emotional cues can help us gently notice where a boundary may have been crossed. We also discuss the different types of boundaries that may be relevant in coaching. These include communication boundaries, emotional boundaries, time boundaries, physical boundaries, energetic boundaries and professional boundaries. Breaking boundaries down in this way can help clients move away from a broad, abstract concept and begin to understand what is actually happening in their day to day lives. A central theme in this episode is the idea of a boundary audit. What boundaries does the client know they have? Which boundaries have they never consciously established? Who knows about those boundaries? So much conflict and confusion can arise because boundaries are assumed rather than communicated. We may expect others to behave as we would, only to feel hurt or frustrated when they do not. We also explore the reality that setting a boundary can create change in a relationship. If a client has always been available after work, always said yes, or always taken responsibility for other people's needs, then communicating a new boundary may come with a cost or consequence. Coaching can provide the safe space needed to explore those consequences, prepare for them and understand what support the client may need. Another important part of the conversation is the difference between boundaries and control. A boundary is something we set for ourselves. It clarifies what we will allow, what we will not allow and what action we may take if that boundary is crossed. Control, on the other hand, is about trying to dictate what another person must do. Helping clients understand this distinction can be powerful, especially when they are navigating complex relationships or workplace expectations. We also talk about permeable boundaries. Some boundaries are firm, while others may be more flexible depending on the situation. For example, a client may have a boundary around not working in the evening, but occasionally choose to respond to something because it feels right in that moment. This can be useful, but it can also create confusion or drift. Coaching can help clients explore whether they are acting from choice, pressure, fear or habit. Towards the end of the episode, we share coaching questions that can support boundary exploration. Questions such as "What boundary are you currently avoiding?", "What are you protecting?" and "What would be the hardest boundary for you to enforce?" can help clients connect with what they need. We also explore the use of metaphor and visual thinking, helping clients imagine boundaries as walls, screens, dotted lines, protective bubbles or something entirely personal to them. This episode is a reminder that coaching boundaries is rarely about giving clients a script for saying no. It is about helping them understand their values, recognise their emotional signals, explore their beliefs, process the discomfort and build the confidence to uphold what matters to them. Healthy boundaries create clarity, safety and more sustainable relationships, both personally and professionally.

Clients may not name boundaries directly. They may present with resentment, anger, overwhelm, burnout or people pleasing. A boundary audit can help clients identify which boundaries they already have, which ones they have not communicated and where confusion is arising. Boundaries are often linked to values. When a value or need is not honoured, the client may experience a strong emotional reaction. Healthy boundaries create clarity and safety, rather than pushing people away. Permeable boundaries can be useful, but they can also create confusion if the client is not clear on when and why they flex them. Coaching around boundaries often involves exploring cost, consequence, beliefs and emotional discomfort. Boundaries are not the same as control. A boundary is about what the client will allow or choose, not about forcing another person to behave differently. Clients may feel shame when they struggle to uphold a boundary, so coaches need to create a safe and non judgemental space. Visual metaphors can help clients explore boundaries in a more embodied and creative way.

The Rush Hour Melbourne Catch Up - 105.1 Triple M Melbourne - James Brayshaw and Billy Brownless
Billy is feeling the winter chill, and JB must've had a brain freeze - that's the only way we can explain the meltdown he had to start the show. BIlly picks us up with the All Sports Report, then a bumper edition of World Cup Fat - including a commentator who might still be yelling, and a French boundary rider in Philadelphia. Commonwealth Games gold medallist Sam Williamson is in studio as he prepares to go to Glasgow, but he's also brought in a homemade Lasagna for Billy to try. BIlly has a quick wrap of footy news, then his favourite moments from the weekend on Triple M Footy, before JB has a message for young people with their heads buried in their phones. Socceroos goalkeeper Andrew Redmayne calls in and tells us how the Aussies can beat Paraguay on Friday, then Billy has a very fruity joke about a deli worker to close the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week on Bad at Sports, Brian Andrews and Ryan Peter Miller sit down with Chicago artist Heather Mekkelson to discuss her recent paired exhibitions, Bass Note at 65GRAND and Snare at Boundary. Across two installations separated by nearly sixteen miles of Chicago, Mekkelson transforms obsolete communication technologies into sprawling sculptural environments wrapped in jute. The conversation explores technological obsolescence, archaeology, sound, labor, environmental extraction, analog nostalgia, artistic trust, and the strange afterlives of the materials we leave behind. From bog-preserved artifacts and ancient spears to dead HDMI cables and power distribution boxes, Mekkelson traces the resonances between human invention and human consequence.

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon breaks down Dove's story and the patterns of abuse that appeared beneath the surface of the relationship. The debrief explores how boundary crossing can be reframed as “openness,” how jealousy and accusations can become a system of control, and how an abuser's imagined stories can force a survivor to keep defending against a reality they did not create. Brandon also discusses the escalation in Dove's story, including rage episodes, privacy violations, sexual coercion, physical violence, strangulation, and the way the abuser shifted responsibility for his own behavior onto Dove. This episode is about boundaries, coercive control, reality domination, blame-shifting, and protecting your peace after someone has made your needs feel like a crime. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode graphically discusses adult physical abuse (IPV), strangulation, suicide threats, adult sexual coercion. *** If you are in search of therapy from professionals dedicated to dealing with TRAUMA - Narcissist Apocalypse recommends REBOUND THERAPY and they can be reached at hellorebound.com/na Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.me Click on the title to read about Coercive Control as Care: Signs & Patterns Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If there is one thing to know about boundaries, it is that a boundary is not about what you need somebody else to do. It is about what you are going to do in response to somebody else's behavior. Colter, Cayla, and Lauren discuss boundaries from a psychotherapeutic lens and give tools for how to better communicate boundaries. Main Talking Points: Our bodies are the indicator for when we need to set boundaries. Boundaries exist on a continuum, not as binary bookends. Communication of boundaries should be specific to the prioritized need. We should approach boundaries with grace, generosity, and curiosity. Give Me Discounts!
