Friends, have you ever struggled with people-pleasing or setting boundaries? I have🙋🏾♀️.
We are taking a deep dive into this subject in this episode of Seed For The Soul, and we have our very first guest🎉🎉🎉
Sarah Steele is a poet and lifelong teacher. These days, that looks like leading her four lively redheads in their Michigan homeschool and engaging with students of all ages in poetry workshops, watercolor classes, nature studies, and neighborhood book clubs. You can find Sarah’s poems in many publications, including The Way Back to Ourselves, where she is an editor. As a wordy extrovert, she finds poetry particularly useful in learning to be succinct. Sarah has published two alphabet books with her graphic designer husband (yes, also a redhead) and just published her first book for grownups, a poetry memoir exploring people-pleasing, boundaries, and anxiety.
