  • How to Set Boundaries When You’ve Never Set One Before | S2E14
    2026/10/20

    Becky Mollenkamp joins Lauren for a conversation about why boundary setting can feel so threatening, especially for high-achieving women and people pleasers. Becky, author of Liberate Your Business and founder of the Feminist Podcasters Collective, breaks down how fear, conditioning, and culture shape the way we work, relate, and say no. They also get practical, with scripts and mindset checks for handling work messages after hours, declining expensive invitations, and responding when people guilt-trip or push back.


    Key Topics

    • Why boundary setting can feel unsafe, even when there is no physical danger
    • How fear of rejection is wired into the human brain
    • How people-pleasing can stem from conditioning, rather than being a personal flaw
    • Why self-acceptance matters alongside personal growth
    • How hustle culture and extractive systems can encourage people to overextend themselves
    • How emotional labor and resentment can signal a missing boundary
    • Ways to set expectations early with bosses, friends, and partners
    • What to do when someone pushes back or uses guilt
    • How boundaries can help protect relationships from resentment
    • Lauren’s experiences setting boundaries in corporate consulting and entrepreneurship
