BOUNDARIES ARE NOT OPTIONAL
Think back on the last week. How many times were you frustrated or annoyed?
If the number was higher than you’d like to admit, you must tune into today’s episode! Susie Pettit dives into the importance of boundaries for ourselves and our parenting.
Susie has been helping women (and lots of moms!) live lives they love for over 10 years. She is the host of the podcast Love Your Life Show and owner of the Wellness Company Strength: Mind & Body, LLC. She is a certified Life + Wellness Coach and a mom of 5 sons ages 17-25.
Susie is passionate about helping women live lives that feel as good on the inside as they look on the outside. She spent more than half her life living a life she did not love; as a people pleaser and codependent perfectionist. She reflects that it’s as if she was trying to win an award for ‘Martyr of the Year’.
Luckily she hit rock bottom and now has the breadth of experience to teach first hand about setting healthy boundaries, beating your inner critic, conscious parenting, and how to use mindfulness-based tools to beat overwhelm and anxiety. She uses two foundational frameworks: Her 5 Pillars of Wellness and the Thought Model.
We talk about how to set boundaries, where to start, the pushback you might get, and be empowered knowing you don't have to overly explain yourself!
