59. "Protecting Your Peace" Is Code for Hiding — And It's Making Us Lonelier Than Ever

Protect your peace." You've seen it. You've said it. I've said it.
And on the surface it sounds healthy. It sounds like boundaries. It sounds like self-care.
But what if it's actually making us weaker, lonelier, and more divided than we've ever been?
What if we've taken a real, valid concept — protecting yourself from people who genuinely harm you — and twisted it into an excuse to avoid anything hard?
Something happened recently that stopped me cold. A friendship. 26 years. ghosted. Over a political opinion. No conversation. No grace. Just silence — and the words "I'm protecting my peace."
And I have my own version of this story too.
In this episode I'm calling out the difference between real boundaries and hiding in a bubble. The echo chambers we're building. The people we're losing. And why we've been so busy protecting our peace that we've lost our people.
This one is going to make you uncomfortable. Good.
Because we need to get uncomfortable.
We are so much better than this.
