About this listen

Therapist Minaa B breaks down why most people get boundaries completely wrong, and what actually works. If you've tried setting boundaries but still feel drained, taken advantage of, or guilty, this conversation will change how you approach relationships.

We discuss the difference between boundaries and walls, why emotional caretaking leaves you depleted, and how to stop abandoning yourself while trying to meet everyone else's needs. Minaa shares practical strategies for navigating difficult family dynamics, addressing burnout, and actually scheduling joy into your life the same way you'd schedule a meeting, because if it's not on the calendar, it's not happening.

This isn't about cutting people off or being selfish. It's about learning to show up whole for yourself and for the people who matter most.
