In this transformative episode of The Pottery, Tess guides you through the powerful, underappreciated art of emotional boundaries—and how learning to say “no” without guilt can radically change your life. Through honest storytelling, guided journaling, top-tier music and sound cues, and Tess’s signature straight talk, you’ll learn: - Why setting boundaries (and sticking to them) is the most loving gift you can give yourself and those you love - Where guilt and perfectionism get in the way—and how to move through them - How to visualize and fiercely protect your personal boundaries, one step at a time - Real-life, heartfelt examples and prompts to help you practice your “no’s,” alongside scripts for empowered “yes, but here’s what I need” moments - A transformational meditation to anchor new habits with clarity and compassion This episode helps you lighten your load, strengthen your self-worth, and fill your circle with authentic love and capacity—for yourself and everyone who matters to you.
