    S3: Stop Seeking Approval and Start Setting Boundaries | Breanne Felicella, Diary of a People Pleaser

    Why is saying no so difficult, even when you know it’s the right thing for you? In this episode of the Yalla Habibi Podcast, we’re joined by psychology coach Breanne Felicella, founder of Diary of a People Pleaser, to explore people pleasing, healthy boundaries, self worth and the pressure to meet society’s expectations in relationships. We put our five social rules under the microscope, from attending weddings and splitting the bill to staying until the end, drinking alcohol and dancing. Together, we explore the difference between people pleasing, personal preferences and setting boundaries, why saying no can lead to confrontation, and how to handle friends and family who struggle to accept your choices. In This Episode: • The difference between people pleasing, personal preferences and boundaries • Why we struggle to say no without feeling guilty • How social expectations influence our relationships • Why people can react badly when you start setting boundaries • Building self worth without relying on other people’s approval • How to set boundaries with friends and family • Knowing when a relationship is no longer healthy • Whether we’re wrong to challenge society’s social rules as a couple We also put Breanne in the hot seat in On the Record, where she faces quickfire agree or disagree questions about relationship boundaries, people pleasing, social expectations and when it’s time to say no. Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction 02:26 – How would you define the difference between people pleasing, boundaries and preferences? 04:30 – With those differences clear, where do each of our five social rules fall? 09:52 – Why do you think we struggle so much to tell the difference between people pleasing, boundaries and preferences, especially when someone suddenly starts saying no? 12:27 – Do we naturally develop stronger boundaries as we get older, or do you find people have to learn them through bad experiences? 16:15 – How do you set boundaries with someone who won’t let it go, and when do you decide the relationship is no longer healthy? 20:00 - One Piece of Advice Breanne Gives Her Clients to Build Self-Worth  21:37 – Do you think we’re wrong to go against any of these five expectations?

    Should Your Partner Have a Say in How You Spend Your Money? | Financial Boundaries

    How can couples manage money fairly when everyone has a different opinion on how relationships should work? In this episode of the Yalla Habibi Podcast, we talk about financial equality in relationships, managing money as a couple, communication, and why social expectations shouldn't determine how couples handle their finances. We share how we make financial equality work in our relationship, from tracking shared expenses and resolving disagreements to challenging traditional expectations around money, and what other couples can take from our experience to build a happier, more balanced relationship. In This Episode: How we make financial equality work as a coupleWhy communication is important when managing moneyHow we track shared expenses and keep each other accountableDealing with financial disagreements in relationshipsWhy couples should question traditional financial expectationsHow family, culture and society influence financial decisionsSetting healthy financial boundaries with your partnerFinding a financial approach that works for your relationship We also explore financial independence in Scott’s WTF of the Week — including research revealing that 56% of British adults have savings set aside in case their relationship ends. And in Shelby’s Good Vibes Only, we look at why Gen Z is embracing cheaper, more creative dates and challenging the idea that romance has to come with an expensive price tag.

    Why Financial Equality Is More Complicated Than Couples Think | Couples Finances

    Is splitting everything 50/50 really the fairest way to manage money in a relationship? In this episode of the Yalla Habibi Podcast, we talk about splitting finances as a couple, financial equality, money disagreements, and the challenges of managing shared expenses while keeping personal finances separate. We share the challenges of splitting everything evenly, dealing with judgement from family and friends, deciding what counts as a shared expense, and why financial independence, trust and freedom make the extra effort worthwhile. In This Episode: The challenges of splitting expenses 50/50 as a coupleDealing with judgement over who pays for dates and days outHow we track and manage shared expensesDeciding what counts as a joint or personal expenseWhy big purchases like houses and cars complicate financial equalityThe benefits of keeping personal finances separateHow financial independence can reduce resentment and money disagreementsWhy fairness looks different in every relationship We also explore how couples split household bills in Scott’s WTF of the Week, including surprising YouGov research showing that only a third of couples split expenses 50/50 when one partner earns more. And in Shelby’s Good Vibes Only, we look at research suggesting that couples with similar motivations around money may have greater relationship satisfaction, even when those financial habits aren't always positive.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction01:30 – How Do We Know When Traditions Are Good or Bad?03:26 - Series Recap04:11 – The Challenge: Why Is Breaking the Money Rules So Hard?13:30 – The Reward: What Going Against the Grain Gave Us17:23 – Scott’s WTF of the Week: Why Only 33% of Couples Split Bills 50/5020:45 – Shelby’s Good Vibes Only: Research Links Financial Compatibility to Relationship Satisfaction 22:40 – Conclusion23:41 – Cliffhanger24:05 – Recommended Episodes 24:27 – Outro Recommended Episodes 📺 S4: My Money, Your Money or Our Money? 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📺 S3: The Social Rules We Stopped Following as a Couple 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠EP2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EP3⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📺 Series 2: Finding The One When You're Not Everyone's Type 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧⁠⁠⁠⁠ EP2⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP3⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP4⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📺 Series 1: Travelling as a Couple: Dream vs Reality 🎧⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EP3⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠EP4⁠⁠⁠⁠ Stories Shared: 💸 ⁠Scott's WTF of the Week – Why Only 33% of Couples Split Bills 50/50 🔗https://yougov.com/en-gb/articles/50381-what-is-the-fairest-way-for-couples-to-split-household-bills? ❤️ Shelby’s Good Vibes Only – Research Links Financial Compatibility to Relationship Satisfaction  🔗⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pere.12539 Discount Codes:AiraloAn eSIM service that lets you get mobile data while travelling without needing a physical SIM card.🏷️ Airalo: SCOTR7127🏷️ Airalo: SHELBY5873 🔗https://www.airalo.com/Starling BankA digital UK bank offering easy money management and fee-free card spending abroad.🏷️ Starling: LBL0M2D🔗https://www.starlingbank.com/About Yalla Habibi Podcast:Yalla Habibi — Let’s go, my friend!

    Why We Split Our Money 50/50 Even When Society Says Men Should Pay | Financial Equality

    When it comes to relationships, should it be my money, your money or our money? In this episode of the Yalla Habibi Podcast, we talk about money in relationships, financial equality, splitting expenses as a couple, and the conflicting expectations around who should pay. We share how we manage our finances as a couple, why we pay evenly for shared expenses, what we keep financially separate, when we choose to pay for each other, and why we don’t believe being in a relationship makes you entitled to your partner’s money. In This Episode: The conflicting financial expectations placed on couplesWhether men should still be expected to pay moreWhat financial equality actually means in a relationship•How we split bills and shared expenses as a coupleWhy we keep personal expenses separateHow we decide what counts as a joint expenseWhy paying evenly doesn’t have to mean keeping scoreBuilding a financial system that feels fair to both partners We also look at financial infidelity in Scott’s WTF of the Week, including research showing how many Brits have lied to their partner about money and secretly spent thousands without telling them. And in Shelby’s Good Vibes Only, we explore research that followed 230 engaged or newlywed couples and found that couples who combined their finances maintained stronger relationship quality over two years.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction02:12 – Would Our Relationship Have Survived If Shelby Paid on the First Date? 03:38 – The Pressure For Men Have to Pay in Relationships06:22 – Society’s Financial Expectations in Relationships 13:28 – How We Manage Money as a Couple24:43 – What We’ve Learned About Couples’ Finances 25:40 – Scott’s WTF of the Week: The Secret Spending Problem31:05 – Shelby’s Good Vibes Only: Joint Finances, Stronger Relationships Recommended Episodes 📺 S3: The Social Rules We Stopped Following as a Couple 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧⁠⁠⁠⁠ EP2⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP3⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📺 Series 2: Finding The One When You're Not Everyone's Type 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠ 🎧⁠⁠⁠ EP2⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠EP3⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠EP4⁠⁠⁠ 📺 Series 1: Travelling as a Couple: Dream vs Reality 🎧⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠EP1⁠⁠⁠ 🎧⁠ ⁠⁠⁠EP2⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP3⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠EP4⁠⁠⁠ Stories Shared:🤫 ⁠Scott's WTF of the Week – The Secret Spending Problem🔗https://www.confused.com/press/releases/2026/almost-half-of-brits-admit-lying-to-their-partner-about-money💰 Shelby’s Good Vibes Only – Joint Finances, Stronger Relationships🔗⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://academic.oup.com/jcr/article/50/4/704/7077142?guestAccessKey=32d8dc66-db46-45ab-a360-57a401a01af9 Discount Codes:AiraloAn eSIM service that lets you get mobile data while travelling without needing a physical SIM card.🏷️ Airalo: SCOTR7127🏷️ Airalo: SHELBY5873 🔗https://www.airalo.com/Starling BankA digital UK bank offering easy money management and fee-free card spending abroad.🏷️ Starling: LBL0M2D🔗https://www.starlingbank.com/About Yalla Habibi Podcast:Yalla Habibi — Let’s go, my friend!

    Five years together, countless adventures, a few questionable decisions and more than enough stories to fill an episode.

We're not totally codependent. Only slightly.” “Even just walking, to the bathroom was like running a marathon.”
