Setting boundaries doesn't make you mean - it makes you magnetic. If you've ever felt exhausted by your clients, drained by your inbox, or trapped in family drama… this week's Chill & Prosper episode is for you. I'm answering listener questions about what to do when you're the “fixer,” the over-giver, or the one everyone leans on, and how to reclaim your energy without burning bridges. This is perfectly timed for those Nurturer and Connector archetypes who may struggle with setting boundaries or putting themselves first.
In this deeply personal episode, we explore one of midlife's most powerful transformations: letting go of the woman you thought you had to be to become the woman you actually are. We're talking about the personas we've worn for protection—the Good Girl, the Over-Achiever, the Caretaker, the Chameleon, and the "Always Fine" Woman. Then we dive into the signs that these masks no longer fit, examine the real fears behind our performances, and explore practical strategies for living authentically. This episode offers both permission and practical tools to stop pretending and start being real. Perfect for any midlife woman who's tired of performing and ready to come home to herself.Send a Text Message :)

In this episode, Keith Kalfas shares a powerful lesson on keeping your emotions in check when running a landscaping business. He reflects on real experiences—like dealing with customer callbacks, weed regrowth after mulch jobs, and mold surprises—and how staying calm, informed, and professional is key to long-term success. Keith breaks down the mindset shift from overreacting to responding with clarity, encourages clear client communication, and reminds landscapers to charge what they're worth. "Don't immediately admit to a mistake just because you're scared." – Keith Kalfas Topics Covered: Emotional discipline in business Dealing with callbacks and complaints Seasonal landscaping challenges Client communication Setting expectations in quotes Knowing your worth and pricing properly Learning through experience and mentorship Drainage, hydrostatic pressure, and property water flow Mindset growth from fear to leadership Key Takeaways Control Your Emotions—Lead With Logic Keith reminds us that running a business means facing tough feedback. But reacting emotionally can hurt more than help. Instead, pause, zoom in (literally and mentally), and respond with facts, not feelings. It's a game-changer for confidence and client trust. Set Boundaries in Your Quotes—Protect Your Peace One simple phrase: “What's included, and what's excluded.” Keith shares how clearly outlining job details (even verbally) avoids costly assumptions. Whether it's removing a stump or skipping a garden bed, clarity = no surprises, no regrets. You're Not Just Landscaping—You're Managing Expectations Whether it's weeds growing back after mulch or dog vomit mold showing up uninvited, clients need education, not excuses. Keith shows how staying informed, explaining calmly, and standing your ground (when you're right) earns long-term loyalty.

Are free trials, free consultations, or “just a few hours” of free work really helping you grow your business? Or are they actually KILLING your profit, authority, and sanity? In this eye-opening episode of SoTellUs Time, Trevor exposes the hidden dangers of giving away too much for free — and how this nice guy strategy is keeping you broke, burned out, and begging for better clients.
This episode is brought to you by the Change Makers Certification Program! In this solo episode of Even Better, host Sinikka Waugh expands on lesson #7 from our 100th episode with a timely reminder: Set Boundaries Before You Need Them. Boundaries aren't about shutting people out—they're about protecting what matters most. When we set clear expectations early, we create space for authentic connection, stronger collaboration, and healthier work dynamics. Waiting until we're overwhelmed or burned out to draw the line often leads to misunderstandings and strained relationships. Instead, setting boundaries proactively helps us stay grounded, focused, and fully present—for our work and for each other.

Rate and Review Follow us on all your podcast platforms and: Instagram: @manhoodneat X: Manhood Neat (@ManhoodNeat) / X Youtube: Manhood, Neat Podcast - YouTube Reach out: manhood.neat@gmail.com Show Notes: Who's Voice Are You Listening To? We're flooded with opinions- influencers, false teachers, YouTube preachers. God has made it clear about Jesus, His voice must be supreme. False Teachers rely on human wisdom; John reminds us: God's word is greater. (Proverbs 3:5 - “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.” The Testimony Within This isn't some mystical elitism. This is grace-born assurance. Distract from the Holy Spirit “You've been taught wrong” “Let ME show you the hidden meaning” “Jesus didn't really mean that” We are not left to figure it out alone. We have the Holy Spirit False Teachers and their distractions False Teachers in Today's Church Garden of Eden (Gen 3:1) The serpent moves from questioning God's word to direct rejection of it. “You surely will not die” The serpent explains why God actually does not want people to eat from the tree. Jesus is a moral example, not a savior Downplays sin and elevates personal truth Encourages spiritual journeys without submission to Christ Not a blatant disregard of the truth, more of a shade of the truth. They sound so reasonable and even impressive. False teachers question what God said. False teachers defy or reject what God said. False teachers offer a “better” alternative Usually subtle Stand Firm Know the testimony Read the Word. Know what God says. Trust the testimony Let the Spirit affirm your faith, not shake it. Reject false testimony Don't flirt with distortion. Encourage others. Speak up when the truth is twisted. Be Bold in truth, gentle in love Set Boundaries to avoid false teaching Ask God to strengthen your knowledge, wisdom, and discernment in His Word. Guard your heart How Do We Respond? Conclusion: The time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths,” 2 Timothy 4:3-4

Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I'm your host, Philippa Channer, and this month we're digging into the business activities that actually drive your growth. If you've been tuning in regularly, you know we're on a journey to help you build a smarter, more intentional business—one that works for you and not the other way around. Last week in Episode 182, we focused on identifying the tasks that genuinely move your business forward. This week, we're taking that knowledge a step further—because knowing what matters is one thing, but knowing what to do first is where the magic happens. Prioritizing effectively is what helps you move out of reaction mode and into your CEO mindset, where you're confidently steering the ship, not scrambling to bail water. So whether you're mapping out your next big launch, managing a team, or still wearing all the hats—this episode is designed to help you find clarity, ditch the busywork, and create real momentum. ⏱️ Timestamps & Key Segments (00:00) Welcome & Episode Overview We begin by grounding ourselves in the “why.” Summer is a strategic season—while many slow down, it's your chance to ramp up for a powerful fall. I remind you how the Empower Her Program can support you during this planning phase. [INSERT LINK] to explore your options. (01:00) Step 1: Identify High-Value vs. Low-Value Tasks All tasks are not created equal—and if you're spending hours tweaking your website or organizing your inbox, it might be time to reassess. I share a real example where I spent four hours trying to automate something that only saves me 15 minutes per week. That's a classic case of a low-value rabbit hole. High-value tasks? Think lead generation, offer creation, follow-ups, and collaborations—things that actually bring revenue or visibility.

In this episode of Shark Theory, host Baylor Barbee dives deep into the often misunderstood concept of setting boundaries. As many listeners have been curious about this subject, Baylor addresses it head-on, providing clarity on what constitutes healthy boundaries and how they guard against narcissism rather than feed it. Through his engaging narrative, Baylor connects boundary setting with personal growth and achievement, urging listeners to consider what defines a boundary and why it's essential for protecting one's goals and ambitions. Drawing from recent studies and his own experiences, Baylor argues that boundaries should not be self-serving walls but rather protective measures that allow for growth and success. By comparing boundaries to the foundational borders set when building a house, he underscores the need for foresight and strategic planning. Baylor encourages listeners to align their boundaries with long-term goals, such as imagining who they want to become in the next 18 months, rather than getting caught up in short-term hurdles. Through real-world analogies and actionable advice, Baylor empowers listeners to be selective about who and what they allow into their lives, ensuring alignment with their future selves. Key Takeaways: Healthy boundaries are essential for personal growth and protecting one's ambitions and projects. Boundaries should not be self-serving but aimed at enabling growth and success. Planning for growth involves setting boundaries that align with long-term goals and not just immediate needs. Understanding who supports your boundaries can reveal much about the relationships in your life. Envisioning yourself in 18 months rather than longer periods helps set achievable goals and boundaries. Notable Quotes: "You have to start setting boundaries for growth." - Baylor Barbee "Boundaries are about keeping out what's not going to help me grow." - Baylor Barbee "When you start setting those boundaries, you see who gets offended." - Baylor Barbee "In this season of my life, I have to have honest conversations with people." - Baylor Barbee "Believe in yourself enough to say, hey, look, I understand I'm right here but also know what I'm going to be." - Baylor Barbee

Men...there is such a thing as being TOO family oriented.While this is NOT an excuse to keep being a workaholic, this is for the men who can't set boundaries and don't actually work enough or provide enough.It seems like the most socially acceptable "nice guy" thing to do...not work as much because you're just being a "good family man".But guys, men are built to work. Your family is relying on you to provide.It's actually an excuse for a lot of guys NOT to do the hard work required to build the business of their family's dreams.Let's break down this lie together, I'll give you some quick changes to make, and I'll give you some mantras to destroy this lie.In this episode:0:00 Intro2:14 The Spiralling Thoughts of Entrepreneurial Family Men4:22 The Root Cause Lie: Provision = Presence, Service = Sacrifice5:28 New Behaviors12:12 Mantras---⏯️ Learn How to Achieve Freedom From Fitness on My YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/vincedelmonte
Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about... It's okay to set boundaries without needing to justify why you are setting them. How to communicate your boundaries to a friend or neighbor (with a sample script you can use!) to honor your needs without burning a bridge. Effective communication strategies and suggested responses for setting restrictions on allowing one of the neighborhood kids to come over uninvited - and how you can respond if your friends or neighbors pushes back. What if your neighbor sees that you let other kids come over unsupervised? A reminder that both the mom setting the boundary and the mom receiving it could benefit from hearing.

Addiction Unlimited Podcast | Alcoholism | Life Coach | Living Sober | 12 Steps
Do you feel like your sobriety gets harder the second a family event hits the calendar? You're not imagining it—family is one of the most powerful and underestimated sobriety triggers. The roles, the judgment, the pressure to be “fine”—it all adds up to stress, emotional regression, and the urge to escape. In this episode, we break down why family triggers hit so hard (even years into recovery), how your nervous system gets hijacked by old conditioning, and what to do before, during, and after those emotionally loaded moments. You'll learn how to: Spot mental, emotional, and social triggers early Set boundaries without guilt or people-pleasing Create an exit plan that protects your peace Use real-life tools to reset your energy and stay grounded Plus, I'll share my own experience with family dysfunction and how I use a simple strategy I call “Don't poke the bear” to keep my sobriety strong—especially when emotions run high. If you've ever felt like the confident, grounded version of yourself disappears around family, this episode will help you reconnect with your power and protect your recovery like your life depends on it—because sometimes, it does.
In this episode of Shed and Shine, Gino Wickman and Rob Dube dive into the power of saying “no”—taking a cue from Warren Buffett, who said, “The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything." Gino reflects on his contrast between business and personal life—assertive in the former, yet prone to people-pleasing in the latter. This conversation unpacks the delicate balance between personal commitments and social obligations, emphasizing communication and compromise. By managing time with intention, the episode challenges listeners to reflect on their own choices, ensuring their energy is spent where it truly matters.

Lisa Bilyeu welcomes Terra Newell, survivor of the infamous Dirty John case, to share her powerful journey of intuition, survival, and self-empowerment. Terra opens up about her harrowing experience with her mother's boyfriend—a manipulative psychopath who infiltrated their lives, ultimately forcing Terra into a deadly confrontation. With refreshing honesty, she unpacks the red flags she noticed, the family dynamics and generational conditioning that left them vulnerable, and how she learned to trust her gut even when everyone around her doubted her concerns. Lisa and Terra dive deep into the psychological traps that confident, loving women fall into, from dismissing their instincts to excusing dangerous behavior. Terra shares tactical advice for spotting manipulative partners, the challenges of being heard when expressing concern, and why women are so often taught to appease and forgive rather than protect themselves. Whether you're here for the true crime story or practical wisdom for self-defense and intuition, the first half of this episode delivers both with courage and clarity.
