Listen "How to Set Boundaries"
Episode Synopsis
Keywords boundaries, accountability, self-care, personal growth, relationships, emotional health, setting limits, self-awareness, communication, personal development Summary This episode covers the 3 steps to setting boundaries: identifying where we need to set a boundary, determining what the boundary should be, and enforcing those boundaries. Setting boundaries takes practice and giving yourself grace—like so many other things in life. Takeaways Boundaries are essential for personal accountability. You are the only one responsible for holding your boundaries. Start small when setting boundaries to build confidence. Identify areas in your life where you feel drained or resentful. Enforcing boundaries can be challenging but is necessary for self-care. Expect pushback when setting boundaries, especially from those who benefit from your lack of them. Communicate your boundaries positively to maintain relationships. Jealousy can arise in others when you set boundaries they can't or won't. Teaching boundaries to others is part of the process. Give yourself grace as you navigate the complexities of boundary setting.
