Energy Boundaries: Stop Building Walls, Start Protecting Your Garden

Listen Later

You can stop viewing boundaries as cold walls meant to shut people out. I’m reframing boundaries as a protective fence for your inner garden. We’ll explore the metabolic cost of an "open checkbook" policy and how to shift from giving out of depletion to giving from a sustainable overflow.

  • Redefining boundaries as "fences" that allow your energy to flourish rather than walls that keep people out.
  • The metabolic case for stewardship, recognizing that your life force is a finite resource that requires intentional allocation rather than reactive spending.
  • A three-step framework for protection, including auditing your energy leaks and identifying the non-negotiable values that keep your "garden" alive.
  • The "power of the pause" to interrupt the automatic default of saying "yes" and to choose consciously where to invest your vitality.
