58. Is His Bad Mood Controlling Yours? How to Set Boundaries Without Guilt

Speak Honest Podcast: Real Talk on Relationships, Attachment Styles & the Work of Healing Childhood Trauma

Do you feel emotionally drained after every conversation with your partner? You’re not imagining it. When your boundaries are too permeable, you absorb stress, moods, and emotions that aren’t even yours. Leaving you exhausted and disconnected from yourself. In this episode, I’m breaking down why this happens, how it’s keeping you stuck, and how to start setting boundaries that protect your energy without shutting down or feeling guilty. Plus, I’ll give you practical scripts and tools so you can stop over-functioning in your relationships and start feeling lighter.

You might want to listen if:

• You leave conversations feeling anxious, even when you weren’t upset
• Your mood depends on how your partner is feeling
• You feel responsible for fixing his emotions or making him happy
• You constantly over-explain, over-apologize, and over-function in relationships
• You need a ton of alone time just to recover from your interactions
