Feeling overwhelmed, resentful, or drained? This episode unpacks why boundaries are so hard to set — from fear of rejection and conflict to confusing connection with compliance — and reframes ‘no’ as self-respect, not selfishness. Jason shares five practical steps (start small, use I-statements, delay responses, expect discomfort, and visualize energy as currency) and a simple boundary check-in exercise to help you honor your limits and protect your well-being.
