🎙 EPISODE 220: Boundaries Are Building Blocks to Your Next Level
You’ve been shrinking. Silencing your truth. Smiling when it hurts. Not because you’re weak — but because somewhere along the way, you were taught that keeping the peace was more important than keeping you.
In this episode, Letitia Hopkins is handing you the blueprint to take your power back — one boundary at a time.
Because here’s the truth: boundaries aren’t selfish — they’re sacred. They’re the bridge between the life you’re settling for and the life that’s calling you higher.
We’re talking about the kind of boundaries that protect your peace, prioritize your needs, and tell the world you know your worth. The kind that aligns you with your next level — not drain you dry trying to earn what’s already yours.
Letitia breaks down what boundaries really are (hint: they’re not walls), how to set them without guilt, and why Main Character Energy starts with knowing who has access to you — and who doesn’t.
This episode is your permission slip to stop people-pleasing and start self-honoring. Because the life you're building deserves to have you at the center of it — fully, boldly, unapologetically.
🎯 Key Takeaways:

✅ Main Character Moves: The Self-Love 2-Step
✨ 1. Set one loving boundary today. Say no. Ask for space. Speak your truth. Protect your peace like it's sacred—because it is.
🪞 2. Journal this: “Where have I been abandoning myself for the sake of keeping the peace—and what does protecting my peace look like now?”
💌 Let Me Pour Into You Real Quick
Boundaries aren’t about building walls — they’re about building your world. They’re how you honor your healing.
How you value yourself as well as teach others to value you. How you rewrite the rules of engagement based on who you are now — not who you were when you were just surviving.
You deserve to be met with love, care, and respect. But that starts with how you love, care for, and respect yourself.
So set the standard. Stand in your truth. And know this: your next level isn’t waiting on permission — it’s waiting on your boundaries.
