#431 | We're Setting Boundaries Wrong...Here's How to Do It Instead
Boundaries are the poetry of self-respect. In this episode, we unpack why so many people get them wrong and how to finally get them right. We share the real definition of a boundary, the trap of outsourcing them to others, and how fear of rejection keeps us stuck. With personal stories and honest conversation, we show how boundaries tie directly to values, self-respect, and growth. If you’ve struggled to set limits without guilt, this episode will give you the clarity and courage to honor yourself.
