Ep. 15: Boundaries
Welcome to Wholesome Thinking, the podcast where we create a safe space to use the gifts that God gave us, challenge people’s minds and stimulate wholesome thinking. In this episode, we explore what it means to set and honor boundaries in different areas of our lives, and why doing so is an act of self-respect, clarity, and care.
We unpack the emotional and mental toll of living without boundaries. We talk about the human side of boundary-setting—especially when it involves people closest to us, like family. How do you say “no” without guilt? What does it look like to redefine relationships that have gone unchecked for years?
We also tackle boundaries in professional spaces—how to guard your time, communicate clearly, and maintain your well-being in environments that often blur the lines. In the age of constant connectivity, we dive into the impact of social media on our mental space and how to create healthy digital habits.
Whether you’re just beginning to explore boundaries or you’ve been on the journey for awhile, we offer thoughtful insights, real stories, and practical tools to help you create a more grounded, intentional, and peaceful life—one boundary at a time.
