Inner Work With MaryAnn Walker: Reclaiming Identity, Boundaries, and Personal Sovereignty A podcast for recovering people-pleasers rebuilding self-trust and a strong sense of self
Welcome to Inner Work with MaryAnn Walker—Reclaiming Identity, Boundaries, and Personal Sovereignty. A podcast for recovering people-pleasers rebuilding self-trust and a strong sense of self
This podcast is for kind, capable people who did everything “right” but still feel stuck, numb, resentful, or disconnected from themselves.
If you’re a recovering people-pleaser, former “good girl” or “nice guy,” or someone who learned to prioritize others’ needs at the expense of your own, this podcast is for you. You may struggle with boundaries, self-trust, decision-making, or knowing what you actually want. You may feel burned out from over-giving, over-owning conflict, or walking on eggshells in relationships—while quietly wondering why happiness still feels out of reach.
In each episode, MaryAnn guides you through the deeper inner work of reclaiming your identity, strengthening boundaries, and restoring personal sovereignty. This is a space for unlearning self-abandonment, rebuilding trust with yourself, and reconnecting with your inner voice so you can make choices that actually feel like yours.
Here we explore topics like people-pleasing patterns, emotional burnout, self-sacrifice, authority wounds, relationship dynamics, emotional numbness, self-worth, and what it really means to live in alignment with yourself. The focus is on self awareness, personal reflection, and self-leadership—not perfection, compliance, or external approval.
If you’re tired of outsourcing your life, tired of being told who you should be, and ready to stop shrinking to keep the peace, Inner Work with MaryAnn Walker offers support, clarity, and encouragement as you learn to trust yourself again and create a life rooted in self-respect, reciprocity, and authenticity.
