Episode description

Struggling to set boundaries with difficult family members? Would you like less family drama and more peace of mind? In this episode of the Let’s Talk About Mental Health podcast, I’m diving into the art of setting boundaries with family and sticking to them… because protecting your mental health starts with defining what you will and won’t tolerate. When family dynamics are unhealthy, they can drain your energy, fuel stress, and even impact your self-worth. But when you set clear boundaries with your family, you take control of your wellbeing and create healthier, more balanced relationships.

In this episode I’ll share practical tips to help you communicate boundaries effectively, deal with pushback, and prioritise your peace without guilt. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by family conflicts or struggled to say “no” without feeling selfish, then this episode will help you to set healthy family boundaries so you can prioritise your peace.

Ready to set boundaries with your family that actually work? Then let’s talk! 😃
