This week’s interview is with embodiment coach and boundaries expert, Phuong Thao Nguyen Macleod.
Phuong Thao helps women of color reconnect with themselves, set healthy boundaries and honor the wisdom of their bodies.
She uses a mind-body approach to help women who have experienced personal or systemic trauma reconnect with their worthiness, wholeness and aliveness.
In addition to being a radiant, joyful human being, Phuong Thao shares so much knowledge about learning to respect your own boundaries and reclaiming your power.
Here are some of the topics we get into in this conversation:
What healthy boundaries are and aren’t
How to set boundaries without overwhelming your nervous system
Why we people-please and how to stop putting everyone else’s needs above your own
Tuning in to the wisdom of your body
The power of the pause
Boundaries and dating
The relationship between self-care and community
I have learned so much from Phuong Thao. I am always inspired by her ability to show up authentically and share so honestly and openly. I hope this conversation helps you set boundaries with more ease and reconnect with your own power.
