Welcome back to the second half of our deep dive into boundaries!
In Part 1, we broke down why setting boundaries feels so complicated. In Part 2, we are moving from theory to practice. We discuss the hardest part of the process: the follow-through. It’s one thing to say you have a boundary; it’s another to hold the line when you’re met with guilt, pushback, or silence. We get real about the messy "aftermath" of saying no, navigating the fear of rejection, and why protecting your peace is actually the kindest thing you can do for your relationships.
In this episode, we cover:
How distance is often the most necessary boundary when words aren’t enough.
Do intentions matter when a boundary is being violated?
How to handle the "guilt hangover" after setting a boundary.
Why "no" is a complete sentence (and why we struggle to believe it).
