Boundaries: How to Set, Communicate, and Hold Them to Protect Your Peace and Energy
In this episode of The Self Love Project Podcast, we’re diving into one of the most essential (and most uncomfortable) parts of protecting your peace: boundaries.
You know that feeling when you’re trying to take better care of yourself — eat differently, rest more, get focused, protect your energy — but everyone around you seems to be operating with the old version of you? Or when you silently hope people will “just know” what you need… and then feel frustrated or unsupported when they don’t?
Megan shares why boundaries feel so hard to set, why we avoid communicating them, and how that leads to resentment, burnout, and emotional exhaustion. We talk about how to actually identify where a boundary is needed, how to communicate it clearly (without over-explaining or apologizing), and most importantly — how to hold the line when people push back.
Because boundaries aren’t about being harsh or shutting people out.
They’re about being honest, clear, and grounded in what you need to protect your energy, your time, and your well-being.
When you set boundaries, you don’t become less loving — you become more loving, because you’re no longer giving from a place of depletion. You’re giving from a place of choice.
