Boundaries: Navigating toxic people without losing yourself

Melissa & Leah Season 2 Episode 2

We all have them — the toxic people in our lives. The ones who drain us, push our boundaries, and sometimes even sneak their way into conversations in front of our kids. In this episode, we aren’t here to help you call anyone out — we’re here to help you call yourself UP.

Together, we unpack what it actually looks like to set higher standards, create realistic boundaries, and walk into situations with a plan (instead of panic). We’ll also talk about how to protect your kids from that toxicity — starting with what we do and don’t say in front of them.

This conversation is for anyone who’s tired of letting toxic people dictate their energy and is ready to protect their peace instead. Boundaries aren’t selfish — they’re survival.
