Sometimes, we don’t know when to say no. Or we don’t know how, especially when we’re new in the workplace.

My guest for this episode is Star Melancon. Star is a scientist turned entrepreneur who struggled with setting boundaries in her corporate workplace before launching a financial consulting agency. Star thought that removing herself from the corporate environment would restore her ability to set boundaries and give back to herself a healthy work-life balance.

But Star learned that without transformation, she would continue the same people-pleasing practices that led to serious physical and mental health consequences. That mistake forced her to turn inward and dig out the root causes of what she called her “mental prison.”
