Six-Figure Boundaries: The Rules That Protect Your Business From You

I'm talking about the six-figure boundaries that protect your business from you — and why boundaries that bend are just suggestions in disguise.This episode is about what actually happens when you don't enforce the limits you set. We get into why over-delivering can quietly become a liability, why "instant messaging" doesn't mean you owe anyone an instant reply, and the moment a throwaway comment from a fellow ads manager changed how I run my entire business. We also talk attention as a boundary in its own right — screen time, phone fasting, and creating before you consume — because protecting your business starts with protecting your own headspace.The pattern is always the same: undefined boundaries don't create freedom, they create a slow-burning resentment that eventually shows up as burnout, and burnout is the real threat to your revenue, not your client load.A boundary isn't a boundary unless you enforce it. Until then, it's just a suggestion.Highlights:(01:10) - Why perimenopause changed how Polly thinks about boundaries around health(04:37) - The moment Polly realised her "boundaries" were actually just suggestions(06:38) - What over-delivering was really costing her (and why her copywriter called it out)(07:44) - "That doesn't happen to me" — the conversation that changed everything(11:36) - Boundaries around attention: what The Dose Effect got right about screen time(16:32) - Why Polly stopped checking her inbox until midday(18:54) - Boundaries around client access, and why instant doesn't mean immediate(24:16) - Boundaries around your calendar, and why Friday off starts on Monday(27:00) - Boundaries around opportunity — the real question to ask before saying yesTo find out more:WebsiteInstagramDownload the FREE Every day Sales Systems Playbook
