This episode is about the yeses that slowly broke us and the no that finally saved us. From do-overs and boundaries to burnout and self preservation, this conversation goes straight into the stuff no one teaches you until life does. What starts as a simple question … are do-overs real? … quickly becomes an honest conversation about boundaries, burnout, and learning to say no without guilt. Donna opens up about her lived experience to spark real conversations around consent, personal safety, trauma, and healing. Alongside Melissa, she talks about unlearning people pleasing, why “no” is a full sentence, and why that lesson matters at every stage of life. The conversation moves through real life …family dynamics, relationships, workplace boundaries, parenting teens, and the chaos of raising kids in a world that looks nothing like the one we grew up in. There’s laughter, hard truths, and the reality of learning boundaries the hard way. At its core, this episode is a reminder that consent is ongoing, boundaries are valid, rest fuels creativity, and choosing yourself isn’t selfish, it’s survival. Sometimes life humbles you straight into your best chapter yet. Content note: This episode discusses sexual abuse awareness, trauma, consent, and boundary setting. Listener discretion advised.

This episode starts with a simple question … Is coming back to real estate a do-over? … and immediately proves nothing about life is ever that simple. Melissa and Donna talk about the shift from saying yes too much to finally having boundaries, how experience changes your confidence, and why starting again doesn’t mean you failed the first time. Then it goes off the rails. Underage wine missions. Tuesday night chaos. Kids throwing full on house parties. Parenting karma hitting hard. And the reality of raising teens in a world that feels nothing like the one we grew up in. It’s raw, funny, slightly unhinged, and painfully relatable … a reminder that your past didn’t ruin you, it shaped you… and sometimes life humbles you straight into your best chapter yet.

We get brutally honest about the one thing almost every woman struggles with: work life balance … or the total absence of it. From showing homes while having contractions, skipping maternity leave, and signing deals during blood transfusions,  to mom guilt, burnout, resentment, and that constant tug of war between ambition and motherhood … we unpack the real, unfiltered truth of being a working mom. We talk about raising kids while building careers, partners who step up, partners who freeze, losing yourself, finding yourself again, setting boundaries, slowing down, and that moment you realize … balance isn’t something you “achieve”… it’s something you survive. If you have ever felt stretched thin, torn between your kids and your career, guilty for wanting more, overwhelmed, exhausted, or like you are quietly drowning while pretending everything is fine …this one is for you. A must listen for every woman who has ever tried to “do it all.” Be NUCKING FUTZ™ with us — join the newsletter, ask a question, or apply to be on the podcast … all the good stuff lives here: www.thenuckingfutz.com   Find us online:   IG/FB/TT: @thenuckingfutz   Find Donna: W: www.shesgotleggz.ca IG: @shesgotleggzz TT/FB: @shesgotleggz   Find Melissa: IG: @iammelissahull W: www.mhullrealestate.com   Brag About It Jewelry: IG: @bragaboutitjewelry W: www.bragaboutit.etsy.com
