Boundaries are not the easiest thing to implement in relationships, but they are absolutely necessary.
“Messed up people will try to tell you otherwise, but boundaries have nothing to do with whether you love someone or not. They are not judgments, punishments, or betrayals. They are a purely peaceable thing: the basic principles you identify for yourself that define the behaviors that you will tolerate from others, as well as the responses you will have to those behaviors. Boundaries teach people how to treat you, and they teach you how to respect yourself.”
– Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed
Powerful, right? I knew you’d think so. On this episode of the show I invited Dr. Candace Anthony, a boundaries expert, to teach us how to set and enforce boundaries. She also breaks down why we even need boundaries in the first place.
