Boundaries and Roles: Anchors Away in Friendship and Life


In this raw and unfiltered conversation, Fawn and Matt dive into the messy reality of setting boundaries and navigating difficult relationships. From the frustrations of an intrusive neighbor to the larger questions of power, gender roles, and leadership, this episode explores what happens when our safe spaces are invaded and rage takes over.
Fawn shares her personal struggle with anger, vulnerability, and the addictive pull of resentment, while Matt offers grounding insights on boundaries, perspective, and even a few playful (cartoon-style) ways of reframing conflict. Together, they examine how to protect your peace, keep your circle strong, and avoid getting pulled into destructive cycles—whether with neighbors, family, or even global leaders.
This isn’t just about neighbors or noise; it’s about finding balance between strength and compassion, recognizing our triggers, and learning when to hold the line or let go. If you’ve ever wrestled with rage, struggled with setting limits, or wondered how to maintain your own peace in the face of conflict, this episode is for you.
