Boundaries: 

In this Episode we are talking about Boundaries, what it means to have boundaries and how they can be a healthy good thing in your life and in your relationships. We believe we should all have them in our relationships in the workplace and in our family. First we talk about how Boundaries are a personal thing, we cannot control or set boundaries for another person, so we have to set our own property lines in relationships with other people. We can only control us, our actions, our emotions. Then we go on to discuss what it looks like to say, NO. We can become so addicted to saying yes to please people or to not cause them harm or inconvenience them, and we often put everyone else's needs before our own. It is okay to say no, you have to draw the line and see what you are sacrificing for yourself or your family. We talk about what it looks like to live in freedom and not be bound to making other people happy. We talk about how sometimes boundaries can be difficult to set in a relationship because even in a loving relationship can have unhealthy boundaries. There are so many important boundaries that need to be there for a family, like when to put your phone down and focus on family, when to leave work at work and be present in the moment.
