Jess and Lisa explore the emotional complexity of ending coaching relationships and how setting firm boundaries enables us to become the people we want to be in both personal and professional contexts.

• Jess shares the bittersweet experience of a coaching client ending their relationship after achieving their goals
• Coaching creates intimate spaces where clients can share vulnerable thoughts, making the conclusion of these relationships emotional
• Boundaries are immutable lines we draw, while everything "to the left" of the boundary remains negotiable
• Effective boundaries allow us to protect our time and prioritize what truly matters
• Drawing boundaries around family time creates safety and enables intentional parenting
• Time-blocking specific commitments (like limiting evening events to twice a month) helps maintain balance
• Confidence, like grief, isn't linear but follows ups and downs that can feel more painful after experiencing success
• Zooming out during difficult moments helps provide perspective on how far we've come
• Self-care through keeping promises to ourselves builds resilience during confidence dips
