You’re not burned out because you don’t care. You’re burned out because you keep saying yes when your soul is screaming no.

In this episode of the Escape Burnout & Reclaim Your Life series, we dive into Shift #4: Protect Your Non-Negotiables—and how to set boundaries that stick (without guilt, apology, or burnout).

You’ll meet Harold again—our high-performing exec who looked successful on the outside but was unraveling inside. This time, we find out how his daughter’s question made him finally draw the line…

🛑 You’ll learn:

  • The 3 boundary-setting moves Harold made to reclaim his calendar—and his peace

  • How to say “no” with clarity, kindness, and confidence

  • Why burnout is not a time problem… it’s a boundary problem

Want help protecting your non-negotiables?

Bonus... when you do, I'll give you my 5 Scripts that Say No (without sounding like a jerk).

Your life’s too valuable to spend it running on empty.

Let’s fix that.
