Show Notes

Are you holding onto someone’s potential instead of facing their current reality?


In this episode of 10 Minutes to Joy, Sylvia Plester-Silk, RSW, explores how ignoring red flags and over-accommodating others can quietly erode self-trust and emotional freedom. Through a personal story involving blurred boundaries in a business relationship, Sylvia reveals how confusing intention with behavior leads to disappointment, resentment, and self-betrayal.


This episode invites you to reflect on where you may be tolerating the unacceptable, hoping someone will change, or giving more than you receive. You’ll learn why emotional freedom begins when you choose self-integrity over attachment to potential—and how clear boundaries restore peace, clarity, and confidence in relationships.


If you’re ready to stop overgiving, trust what you see, and let go of what no longer serves you, this episode is for you.
