Timestamps of big takeaways

[00:14] Let’s talk about rules and boundaries. I kick things off with an example of my fence being the boundary telling you not to enter my space without permission or my dogs could bite you

[01:25] What about something that doesn’t have a clear boundary like a fence? I share what that might look like

[02:21] The problem is many of us are scared to set boundaries

[03:43] Believe it or not, we’re all narcissistic and selfish to a degree

[04:15] Sometimes a feeling of hurt or disrespect has nothing to do with you

[05:08] You have to set a boundary and have a conversation to prevent issues in the future

[05:28] Making assumptions can cause massive conflict

[06:09] I admit though, some people are just not nice, and I challenge you to set boundaries with them anyway to control your own story and protect your own feelings

[06:58] If someone is not going to respect your boundaries, you have the power to make a change to only interact with people who will respect them

[08:01] At the same time, you can’t expect people to know your boundaries without telling them
