The Grateful Podcast with Jack Wagoner
Episode 72
Guesting Talia Bombola
We’re told to love ourselves and set boundaries—but how do you actually do that?
In this episode of The Grateful Podcast, Jack Wagoner sits down with therapist and confidence specialist Talia Bombola, LMFT to break down what real self-worth looks like, how to build lasting confidence, and what actually defines a healthy relationship.
Whether you’re a high achiever struggling to balance work and love, or someone working through feelings of not-enoughness, this conversation is for you.
Topics we cover:
• How to rewire your self-worth
• Why overachievers often burn out in love
• Confidence vs performative self-assurance
• What a healthy relationship actually looks like
• How to balance ambition with intimacy
• Why “good enough” is sometimes the healthiest goal
