SheKings Ep. 34: Boundaries ~ Build them up then Break them Down


Listen Later

Here's the truth: we create boundaries to protect us from the things that hurt. We build boundaries to help us say in advance what we're afraid to say in the moment. 

But what if we use boundaries to help us wake up to the things that are important to us then let them go in order to allow presence and power to take hold in our lives. 

We spend our lives trying to avoid negative emotion. We spend our lives trying not to come off as inconsiderate, an asshole, or too direct. 

We attempt to set up rules for others to follow when we don't trust ourselves enough to speak our truth in the moment. 

We say things like, "I'm focusing on my health so please keep in mind that I won't be able to stay later than 6pm everyday." And when your boss doesn't remember or respect the boundary you've set, you get angry because here you are working late again. Wait!? Who's not respecting your boundaries?

In this episode, we take a hard look at the many ways we erect walls around ourselves and try to put the responsibility for our well-being on others. And, then we help you break those walls down.
