218 — 3 Steps to Building Boundaries That Stick So You Can Reclaim Your Time and Energy


Listen Later

Do you struggle to set boundaries that stick? You're not alone.

Boundaries protect your time, energy, and mental well-being, yet many of us feel guilty or back down when faced with pushback. Fortunately, boundary setting is a skill, and just like any skill, you can get better with practice.

This episode is all about helping you create boundaries you can feel good about. By the end of the episode, you'll know how to identify, communicate, and stick to your boundaries—with zero guilt.

Some of the things I share are:

  • Why boundaries are essential for your mental and emotional wellbeing
  • How unclear boundaries drain your energy and create resentment
  • A simple 3-step formula for building boundaries that last
  • How boundaries can transform your relationships for the better
  • Words and strategies to clearly and kindly communicate your limits
  • Why “showing” your boundaries can work better than just “telling” people
  • How to handle pushback without backing down
