In this bonus clip from my conversation with Gnora Mahs,I ask my four favorite questions about boundaries, joy, and self-care. Gnora shares her insights on joy, boundaries, and self-care.

With a humorous take on her fear of butterflies and a candid reflection on her struggles with physical activity, Gnora offers a relatable glimpse into her life and the importance of maintaining boundaries for mental well-being.
