Welcome Back, Sexy Brains! As we evolve and make changes in our lives, we inevitably have to reshape the dynamics with the people around us. That usually means setting boundaries, and let's be real, that's really uncomfortable, especially if you've spent years saying "yes" to everyone, putting everyone else's needs above your own.

So, how do you set healthy boundaries without feeling guilty or selfish? What happens when the people closest to you push back?

In Episode 4, we dive deep into the role boundaries play across personal and professional relationships. We also break down how boundaries can be bridges to deeper connections, mutual respect, and self-preservation. Whether you're a seasoned pro at protecting your peace or just starting to realize that "no" is a complete sentence, this conversation is packed with insights to consider on your personal growth journey.

Tune in and discover how setting healthier boundaries can transform not just your relationships, but your entire sense of self-worth. You got this!

Season 1, Episode 3 - Work and Identity

Hello Sexy Brains! In Episode 3 of our season exploring “Change,” we’re looking at how our jobs intersect with our identities. Many people in life may aspire to a dream job or career, but what effect does our job have on the views we carry about ourselves? And how does your title impact the way others might see you?

The Brains Are Sexy team looks at the many different ways personal identity, values, and preferences come into play in the workplace... and in turn, how toxic stress, roles, and connections bleed over into life off the clock. Our discussion deepens as we brainstorm ways to find balance between the office, community, and personal space.

Wanting to embrace more of your personality in the workplace? Struggling to find how your job or career is fitting into your long-term goals? Listen on to find out the best ways to build your confidence and make your work feel more exceptionally "you!"
