What are boundaries and why are they important? How can setting boundaries help you develop while also protecting yourself? These are just some of the questions answered by Carmela and Mirtle on this episode of The Marrte Life Podcast. Sit down, relax, and enjoy the chika. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• Boundaries aren't about putting up a wall, it’s more about establishing your comfort zone, setting limits, and telling people how you feel.
• You don’t have to say yes all the time, just because someone might have a bad reaction when you say no, doesn't mean you have to let them get their way. 
• Setting boundaries is a way of showing love towards yourself. Peer pressure and just giving in isn’t going to benefit you. It’s just people pleasing. 
• People used to have to rely on intuition to survive. We have to think "is this safe for me, is this going to hurt me?".

Filipina models and business partners, Carmela and Mirtle catch up on all the things they can’t stop thinking about... good thing they got a podcast to tell it all! 

Grab your favourite sunglasses and tasty cocktails (Carmela is allergic to alcohol so she’ll settle with buko juice) and join these two Maarte Babes, every Thursday, as they sit down and chika on all things: Lifestyle & Leisure, Beauty at All Ages, Relationships, and Personal Development... and of course catch-up with their brilliant and inspiring guests who are just as Maarte as they are!

With every episode, The Maarte Life Podcast’s mission is to create a space where women (and gents) feel empowered and confident, and make you laugh - a lot. Carmela and Mirtle are committed to authenticity, honesty, and learning right alongside you.
