Personal and Relational Boundaries

About today's show

Personal and Relational Boundaries are easy to talk about but can be challenging to implement. In this episode, we're sharing how setting and honouring boundaries is an act of self-care and ultimately helps increase your sense of self-love. These are the questions we'll be discussing:

  • What do boundaries mean to you?
  • What are some things you practice setting boundaries for?
  • How do you know when you need to set a boundary?
  • What are some fears that come up for you when setting boundaries?
