Fall is coming — and so is the chaos. If you don’t set boundaries now, you’ll be running on fumes by October.

In this episode of The Quiet As Kept Podcast, Shawnti Refuge breaks down why “yes” has been your default answer, how overextending yourself is draining your peace, and why it’s time to pre-decide your limits before the busy season hits.

You’ll learn:

• Why boundaries are an act of self-love (not selfishness)
• How to identify where you’re overcommitting
• The real reason it’s so hard to say “no”
• A journal prompt to help you protect your capacity without guilt

This is your permission slip to choose yourself first — and keep your energy for the things that matter most.

🖤 New series + workshops are coming soon:
 → Fallin’ For My Damn Self
→ The Audacity of a Healing Woman Workshop
