Road signs exist for a reason. 

They tell us where we can and can’t go, what’s safe and what’s off-limits. 

Without them, driving would be a guessing game!

Boundaries serve the same purpose in life. Without them, it’s easy to veer off course or worse, crash with exhaustion. 

When others dictate your time and energy, you lose autonomy. You can run yourself into the ground meeting endless demands. 

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. But here’s the good news: you can take back control.

What if you had clear road signs, the ones you create, to guide your time and energy?

Today, I’ll walk you through a simple process to set boundaries that keep you on the right path.
