Listen "165. Journal with Me: Boundary Setting *Without* Guilt (3 Prompts)"
Episode Synopsis
Ready to stop feeling like a jerk every time you protect your time and energy? This one's for all the women who know they need boundaries but feel guilty just thinking about setting them.I keep hearing this at networking events — successful women who can negotiate million-dollar deals but can't tell their neighbor they're not available to babysit; or 'feel bad' delegating to their employees because they assume they have too much on their plate already.What we're diving into:Why saying no feels like being a bad personThe crosswalk analogy that'll change how you think about boundariesHow guilt is actually your protection mechanism (not proof you're considerate)3 journal prompts to break the guilt cycleThe truth bomb: Your boundary struggles aren't about not knowing how to say no. They're about an unconscious belief that your worth depends on managing everyone else's comfort AND that your guilt = being considerate. But really? Guilt is keeping you from authentic relationships where people actually know the real you and what you need.Resources mentioned:Free Calm Mind Blueprint (includes private podcast with voice guidance): www.samanthapenkoff.com/calm-mind-podPrivate coaching (1 spot open): www.samanthapenkoff.com/privatecoachingConnect with Sam:Instagram: www.instagram.com/samantha.s.saysFacebook: www.fb.com/coachsamanthahawleyEmail: [email protected]
