You’re ready to walk out of your office and then…a last-minute request comes in. What do you? Do you leave anyway and risk letting people down or do you stay and compromise on your priorities. In today’s episode I share the truth about this moment and why it is so difficult to follow through with your boundaries and I offer a 4-step process to handling the emotions that come up with last minute requests.

Topics in this episode:

  • Boundaries are your decisions
  • Upholding your boundaries doesn’t often feel good
