About this episode
005 - In this episode, hosts Emily and Jason Morrow dive into the hilarious and heartfelt world of people pleasing. Emily, the ultimate crunchy mom and chronic people pleaser, shares her struggles and triumphs in learning how to say "no" without guilt. Meanwhile, Jason, who has perfected the art of setting boundaries (sometimes too well), offers his contrasting perspective. As they navigate this topic, Emily and Jason explore the emotional rollercoaster of being kind and their motivations behind it. Join them for a comedic yet thoughtful discussion that reveals how opposites can indeed attract, and how embracing those differences can lead to a more balanced life. Whether you're a people pleaser like Emily or a boundary-setting pro like Jason, this episode is packed with laughs, insights, and hopefully, some inspiration.
