Autism & Neurodiversity

The Real Reason Boundaries Backfire


Listen Later

You set a boundary to bring calm...

but somehow it turns into another storm.

Your “no” becomes an argument.

Your calm turns into shutdown.

And you’re left wondering, why does this keep happening?

In this episode, Debbie reveals what’s really going on beneath those moments and why even well-intentioned limits can trigger resistance instead of respect, especially for neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults. You’ll discover the hidden signal your nervous system sends before you even speak, and how shifting your inner state changes everything about how your boundaries land.
