How to Set Boundaries Without Feeling Guilty
from The Advisor with Stacey Chillemi · host Stacey Chillemi
You say yes and immediately feel the resentment rising. You say no and spend the next hour over-explaining, apologizing, and second-guessing yourself. That exhausting loop is not a personality flaw. It is what happens when you were taught — directly or silently — that your needs matter less than everyone else's comfort. Kamini Wood works with exactly that pattern — the people-pleasing, the over-giving, the burnout that follows when you keep abandoning yourself to keep the peace. What she has found at the root of why boundaries feel so hard will make you realize the guilt was never really about the boundary. It was about your worth. This episode will help you start changing that. You’ll learn: ✨ How to recognize when you’re over-giving ✨ Why boundaries feel uncomfortable (and what that means) ✨ The connection between people-pleasing and burnout ✨ Simple ways to say no without guilt or over-explaining ✨ How to protect your energy and stay connected in relationships Connect with Kamini Wood: Website: https://www.kaminiwood.com/ Instagram: @itsauthenticme LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kaminiwood Learn more about your ad choices.
