EPISODE 158 | Burnout, Boundaries, and the Cost of People Pleasing with Sheryl Green

What happens when your body starts screaming “no,” but you keep saying “yes”?In this episode of Human Amplified, Brandi Fleck sits down with boundary expert and author Sheryl Green to explore burnout, people pleasing, emotional exhaustion, and the hidden ways our bodies communicate stress long before our minds catch up.Together, they unpack the roots of unhealthy boundaries, the fear of disappointing others, the connection between suppressed emotions and physical symptoms, and the identity shift that happens when you stop living entirely for everyone else.This conversation moves through nervous system responses, toxic workplace culture, codependency, emotional leakage, relationship dynamics, and why saying no is often an act of sustainability rather than selfishness.If you've ever felt overwhelmed, resentful, emotionally depleted, or disconnected from your own needs, this episode offers a grounded and deeply human look at what boundary work actually requires.
