Ep 20: EPIC Limits with Lisa Quinn

In this episode of "Finding Your Epic," Jacqueline Frost takes on a new role as the interviewee, with Lisa Quinn stepping in as the interviewer. The theme for their enlightening conversation is about the importance of setting boundaries, both personal and professional, a recurrent topic Jacqueline has observed throughout her interviews with various influential women. They delve into "EPIC limits," discussing the critical balance between being generous and preserving one's self-interests.

Jacqueline reflects on the nuanced ways boundaries influence our interactions and decisions, noting that while it's essential to be generous, one must avoid self-sacrifice to the point of personal detriment. The discussion also covers the psychological aspects of boundary-setting, examining the deep-seated fears that often lead individuals to either enforce too rigid boundaries or none at all, which can significantly impact relationships and work dynamics.

The episode closes on a powerful note with Jacqueline citing Helen Keller: "Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold." This quote beautifully encapsulates the episode's message, encouraging listeners to recognize and assert their needs thoughtfully and boldly to foster well-being and success across various life aspects.
