The Boundary Decision: What Is Yours to Carry? With Alyssa Utecht

What happens when being helpful turns into carrying what is not yours? In this episode of SoundBits, Kim Groshek is joined by Alyssa Utecht for a conversation about boundaries, power, nervous system safety, and the decisions we keep reopening because discomfort feels too hard to hold. Kim and Alyssa unpack: Why boundaries are not just walls, but decision lines How over-helping can take away someone else’s agency Why resentment, exhaustion, and overwhelm often point to a crossed boundary The “tennis court” model for clean responsibility How leaders, helpers, and empaths accidentally carry everyone else’s decisions Why clarity without containment becomes UN-DECISION™ The first small question to ask: “Is this mine, or is this theirs?” This episode is for anyone who has been carrying someone else’s backpack, solving problems before being asked, or staying stuck in a decision that was never fully theirs to make. This episode isn’t meant to sit with you.
