146: Creating, Setting, And Sticking To Boundaries

On today’s episode, I want to address something that many of us desire to have, yet struggle to implement; boundaries. Boundaries are limits we put in place to create space and comfort between us and another individual and their purpose is to protect and care for your mental well-being. To create a life you truly love and enjoy, it’s important to have, set, and stick to boundaries. Without them, we can quickly fall off course and start blaming ourselves for unnecessary things and thus create more stress in our life. On this episode we dive into: What the purpose of setting a boundary is.How to define a boundary, communicate the boundary, and then stick to the boundary. The consequences of not adhering to those boundaries.How to work towards finding balance and fully understanding what your boundaries are and where they came from.How to ensure your boundaries are met and understood by those you communicate them with. How to speak to someone when they have crossed one of your boundaries. Resentment following saying “yes” when you really wanted (or needed) to say no.Practicing self-awareness to identify what needs you have that are not being met and then queue in: setting a new boundary! The take-home: Tune into your feelings, identify what feelings you’re having, and then name it out loud so that you can set and communicate the boundary properly. No one is going to make the changes for you. So it’s up to you to uphold the boundaries you set. Without boundaries, your mental and emotional state will inevitably be compromised and thus you won’t be able to show up as your best self for you or for those you love. Practice self-awareness and make self-care a priority. Seek support from those you love and trust. Lastly, NEVER feel sorry for saying NO!
