The Kind Person's Guide to Boundary-Setting (that actually works!): Quit the people-pleasing and bring on the holiday peace

The University of Being Yourself Podcast

BOUNDARIES ARE HARD! Telling people no, advocating for what you need, possibly disappointing people feels crummy.
But, guess what? You still need to set them, especially during the holiday season, so you don’t spend the holidays seething with resentment or feeling exhausted and overwhelmed.
And it’s totally possible! In this episode, I’ll share a totally new way of thinking about boundaries, one where you can still be kind, but also get what you need.

What’s covered in this episode:

✅ Why “being nice” is making boundaries harder for you
✅ A key mindset shift: kind vs. nice (and why it matters!)
✅ How to say no without guilt (yes, it’s possible!)
✅ Boundaries vs. requests – what’s the difference?
✅ Real-life examples of boundaries at work (like my husband’s genius “drive separately” hack!)
✅ The one question you must ask to actually make boundaries work
✅ How to make boundaries not personal
✅ Practical tips (with real life examples) to survive the holiday season with your sanity intact

Listen now! You can literally start using these tactics right now so your holiday season is peaceful, easy, and feels like you.
