Boundaries and Peace with Nedra Glover Tawwab

What if the path to peace was as simple as minding your own business? New York Times Bestselling author, therapist, and boundary expert Nedra Glover Tawwab joins us for a conversation that might forever change how you approach relationships, information consumption, and authenticity.

Nedra reveals her number one personal core value—minding her own business—and explores why this seemingly simple principle can transform our lives. We dive deep into why constantly focusing on others drains our energy and creates unnecessary drama. "Many of us need to be treated like toddlers," Nedra laughs, pointing out our tendency to comment and judge others when we'd be better served by focusing inward.

One of the most liberating insights Nedra shares is that people don't always want to understand you. When someone misinterprets or judges us, our instinct is to explain and defend. Yet Nedra suggests that sometimes, no amount of explanation will change another's narrative about us. "Context matters," she emphasizes, noting how stories about us depend entirely on who's telling them and what they choose to include or omit.

The conversation takes fascinating turns as we explore being "out of the loop" as a form of peace, how to set meaningful boundaries on social media, and what authentic self-expression really means. "Your authentic self doesn't mean it's the best version of you," Nedra challenges, suggesting that different parts of ourselves are appropriate in different contexts.

Perhaps most powerful is Nedra's approach to feedback. Rather than becoming defensive, she models openness to criticism, sharing how constructive feedback on her speaking style—though initially uncomfortable—ultimately improved her presentations. This stance offers us all a blueprint for growth through receptivity rather than defensiveness.

With warmth, humor, and profound insight, Nedra offers a masterclass in boundary-setting that feels less about restriction and more about freedom. Whether you're struggling with people-pleasing, information overload, or simply feeling overwhelmed by others' expectations, this conversation provides practical wisdom for creating more peace in your everyday life.
