Manage episode 471014213 series 3652363
Feeling stretched too thin, taking on things that aren’t really yours to carry? Maybe you know your boundaries could be stronger, but you're not sure where to start? In this episode Tertia dives into how lacking boundaries can quietly push you toward burnout, especially for women who are constantly juggling responsibilities.
Tertia breaks down how weak or leaky boundaries can leave you feeling overwhelmed and stretched too thin and why setting boundaries from a place of deep self-trust (instead of guilt or overthinking) can bring a sense of balance and ease. She unpacks the struggles of holding strong boundaries in both work and personal life, the fear of upsetting people, and how we’ve been taught to put everyone else first. This episode will offer you guidance on how to reconnect with your body's truth and stand strong in your boundaries, finally breaking out of the burnout cycle.
