    Choosing Yourself Will Cost You: The Truth About Setting Boundaries

    Choosing yourself will cost you. When you've spent years being the dependable one, the helper, the peacekeeper, or the woman who always says yes, changing those patterns can feel deeply uncomfortable. Setting a healthy boundary may disappoint someone. A relationship may change. You may discover how much of your identity has become connected to being needed. In this episode of Unlearning the Good Girl, Jen Anderson, Beliefs & Boundaries Specialist, explores what really happens when you begin choosing yourself. You'll hear why other people's discomfort doesn't automatically mean your boundary is wrong, how over-functioning can shape relationships, and why learning to tolerate the discomfort of change is part of rebuilding self-trust. Jen also shares a powerful client story about what happened when one woman finally stopped over-giving in a one-sided friendship, along with reflection questions to help you recognize where you may still be abandoning yourself for approval. Choosing yourself may change what feels familiar. It can also give you greater peace, clarity, self-respect, and space to hear yourself again. 📖 Download the free Choose You Reflection Guide:https://www.thankfulheartscoaching.com/chooseyou 🌐 Learn more about Jen Anderson:https://www.thankfulheartscoaching.com Connect with Jen Anderson Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/the.jennifer.andersonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.jennifer.andersonTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thankfulheartscoachingEmail: thankfulheartscoaching@gmail.com If this episode resonated with you, follow Unlearning the Good Girl, leave a review, and share this episode with a woman who needs to hear it. #SettingBoundaries #PeoplePleasing #ChoosingYourself #SelfAbandonment #HealthyBoundaries

    You're Not Overthinking... You're Avoiding a Decision | How to Build Self-Trust

    Have you ever replayed a conversation over and over, made endless pros and cons lists, or asked everyone you know for advice, only to feel just as stuck? In this episode of Embrace Your Value, trauma therapist Kristen Burris and Beliefs & Boundaries Specialist Jen Anderson explore why overthinking is often less about needing more information and more about feeling unsafe making a decision. Together, they discuss how past experiences shape the way we approach uncertainty, why perfectionism and people-pleasing keep us stuck, and how self-trust is built by taking one small step at a time. If you've been waiting until you feel completely certain before making a decision, this conversation will encourage you to trust yourself, take action, and remember that confidence is built by doing—not by waiting.

    The Grief Nobody Warns You About When You Start Healing

    In this episode of Unlearning the Good Girl on Embrace Your Value, Jen Anderson talks about something that catches a lot of women off guard on the healing journey: grief. Not grief over losing someone, but grief over how long you carried too much, how long you ignored yourself, and how long you believed your worth depended on what you could do for everyone else. Jen walks through why grief is part of the bridge to healing rather than a detour away from it, why so many women skip straight to fixing and stay stuck, and what it looks like to offer the old version of yourself compassion instead of criticism.

    You Don't Have to Get It Right. You Just Have to Stop Abandoning Yourself.

    In this episode of Unlearning the Good Girl on Embrace Your Value, Jen Anderson digs into one of the most misunderstood concepts she works with: self-trust. Most women don't say "I don't trust myself." They say "I second-guess everything" or "I don't know what I want anymore." But underneath both of those is the same quiet erosion that happens every time you override what you already know. Jen shares a personal example from the night before this episode, breaks down what self-trust actually means, and walks through journal prompts to help you identify where you've been abandoning your own voice in everyday moments.

    Is Social Media Feeding Your Inspiration or You Insecurity?

    In this episode of Embrace Your Value, Jen Anderson and trauma therapist Kristin Burris dig into something most of us experience but rarely examine: the way social media quietly shifts our mood, feeds comparison, and chips away at our confidence before we even realize it's happening. They talk about why the rabbit hole of despair starts so fast, what we're actually looking for when we reach for our phones, and what it looks like to build a healthier, more intentional relationship with the apps we use every day. This is not a conversation about deleting everything and disappearing off the grid. It's about becoming aware enough to make choices that actually serve you.

    You were Never Too Much. You Just Learned to Shrink.

    In this episode of Unlearning the Good Girl on Embrace Your Value, Jen Anderson talks about one of the most quietly exhausting patterns she sees in women: spending so much energy filtering yourself through what other people can handle that you stop feeling safe being fully you. The fear of being too much keeps women holding back their truth, minimizing their needs, and packaging themselves into smaller, easier versions of who they really are. Jen shares her own experience with this pattern, the hidden cost of living edited, and what it looks like to start interrupting the habit of shrinking. She also walks through honest journal prompts to help you identify where this is showing up in your own life. Download the free reflection guide at www.thankfulheartscoaching.com/chooseyou.

    That Instant Resentment After Saying Yes Is Trying to Tell You Something

    In this episode of Embrace Your Value, Jen Anderson and trauma therapist Kristin Burris explore one of the most common patterns women experience: saying yes before they've even had a chance to think, and then feeling instant resentment once the words are out. They dig into why this happens at a nervous system level, what that resentment is actually pointing to, and what it looks like to start pausing before you commit. Jen and Kristin share real client stories, break down the difference between guilt and shame, and offer practical tools including a simple back pocket script that gives you space to check in with yourself before you answer. If you've ever said yes and immediately wished you hadn't, this one is for you.
