Most of us cringe at the thought of setting a boundary—especially with those who are closest to us. We often hesitate to put boundaries into place because we think it will damage the relationship, make someone angry, or simply make our lives more complicated. Truthfully, it can also be really hard to do. 

Some of us even worry that we won’t be loved if we put boundaries in place. 

But what if you can’t have the love you want without them?

The truth is that if we don’t honor our boundaries, no one else will either. 

There can be a lot at stake when we finally give voice to our boundaries. So how do you get started with setting boundaries that you know you need? 

Today’s guest has a very unique approach to boundary work that will help you rethink what it means to set a boundary.
