Living by your Values: Boundaries, Burnout & Becoming Who You Are

from The Blunt and The Beautiful · host Stitch Up

This week, Kate and Tansy are back on the mic and mad as hell — at self-sacrificing culture, at glittery performative bullshit, and most of all, at the slow death of self-respect in the name of "being a good woman."From autoimmune rage to ribbon-laced humiliation at a too-cool bar, they deep dive into the real cost of living out of alignment with your values. It's raw, funny, and full of chaotic anecdotes — including Kate's stint as an accidental AO party planner who didn't get invited, and Tansy's passionate defence of beauty, equality, and Mecca facials.They unpack their personal values (think: creativity, authenticity, helpfulness, and rage at late-stage capitalism) and offer up sharp, sometimes savage reflections on what it means to live a life that actually feels like yours.If you've ever ignored your intuition, compromised your standards, or said yes when your soul was screaming “NO,” this one is a must-listen.Because living out of alignment won’t just make you tired. It might make you sick.Topics include:Self-respect vs. survival jobsWhy values aren’t a Pinterest quote — they’re a life raftTansy’s BuzzFeed-value-test revelationsBeauty standards, community love, and honesty (with a side of bluntness)How to tell if you're betraying yourself (hint: your jaw hurts and your ancestors keep slamming doors)Thank you to our sponsor Hemp Skin — a local small-batch brand creating high-vibe rituals for both skin and soul.
