The Inner Safety Skill Building Method: How to Build Boundaries That Actually Hold | Episode 341
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this week’s episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I’m sharing the origin story of my Inner Safety Skill Building Method and why most boundary work fails without internal containment.
I didn’t learn boundaries from books. I learned them as a byproduct of recovery. And what I eventually discovered is this: external boundaries only hold when internal boundaries exist first. If you’ve ever thought, “I know how to say no, but I still feel awful afterward,” this episode explains why.
Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:
• The difference between self-protection and self-containment
• Why rumination, catastrophizing, and self-attack violate your internal boundaries
• Why knowing what to say is not the same as being able to stand behind it
• The five skills for building internal safety
• How unshakability is steadiness, not perfection
You don’t need more scripts.
You need more internal containment.
Wholeness is not perfection.
It’s the absence of self-abandonment in the presence of emotion.
Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tools on building emotional safety from the inside out and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
Thank you for listening! If you enjoyed this episode, take a screenshot of the episode to post in your stories and tag me! And don’t forget to follow, rate and review the podcast and tell me your key takeaways.
