Setting boundaries at work sounds simple—until your boss sends another late-night request, your workload keeps growing, or saying no feels risky.
In this Loud & Lifted Quick Lift, Betsy shares practical takeaways from her conversation with Carrie, founder of Hey Work Friend and a former corporate HR leader, about protecting your time, health, and career in demanding or toxic workplaces.
You’ll learn:
▪ Why people-pleasing at work may be a nervous-system response
▪ A simple three-step script for setting professional boundaries
▪ How to reset a boundary after you’ve already said yes
▪ What to document before bringing an issue to HR
▪ Why toxic managers rarely change without consequences
▪ How chronic workplace stress affects your health
▪ Why being constantly available does not make you more valuable
You can care about your work without allowing it to consume your life. Do great work. Be dependable. But remember: your job may not protect you—your boundaries can.
Watch the full conversation with Carrie for more honest, practical advice on navigating workplace boundaries, difficult managers, and unhealthy company cultures.
