Self Centered with Katie and Allie by Katie Kurtz and Allie West

Episode notes

Why do so many of us struggle with setting healthy boundaries? In this episode, we uncover how culture, family systems, and social pressures shape the way we protect ourselves (or don’t). From cancel culture to hustle culture to family expectations, we’ll break down the hidden forces behind rigid, porous, and healthy boundaries, and how to reclaim your own. This is especially for you if you grew up over-functioning, silenced, or shamed for setting limits or feel scared you'll be cancelled if you express your true self.

You’ll learn:

  • How cancel culture mirrors rigid boundaries on a societal level
  • How hustle culture and “respect your family” conditioning create porous boundaries
  • Practical ways to protect yourself without abandoning connection
