Barb Nangle is a boundaries coach, speaker, author, and host of the Fragmented to Whole podcast. After decades of therapy and personal development, she discovered that lasting change wasn’t about gaining more insight — it was about creating internal safety. Today, she helps women build healthy boundaries, stop overgiving, and develop stronger relationships with themselves and others. In this honest conversation, Barb shares: • How her childhood looked “normal” but left her without emotional safety • Unhealthy coping skills she developed young • What she wishes her younger self understood about boundaries • Why adults can still learn boundaries even if they were never taught • How 12-step recovery and codependence work led her to this path • Her Inner Safety Skill Building Method for lasting change If you’re in your 20s (or beyond) tired of people-pleasing, overgiving, or struggling to set boundaries, this episode offers practical hope and real tools.
