Perhaps you're cooked well-done with this topic of boundaries but in my opinion, I don't feel we've even touched the surface. We read the books, we connect with the boundary influencers on Instagram, we even tell our friends over dinner what all of us should do. But are we REALLY doing it? Are we terrified of confrontation (ummm, my hand is raised!)? Is it easier to ghost the person or ignore someone's behavior? Do you find release complaining and declaring how you're being treated like crap, but there's no action because you're afraid? (Again, I'm raising my hand.)
Motherhood brings a slew of situations where we have to set boundaries to find peace. I was even told by my best friend to start setting boundaries while you are MARRIED versus when you become a mother. Set them ASAP so the transition is easier when baby comes and the gloves come off. But what if you haven't set the boundaries and nicey nicey you is now feeling she needs to be a big ol' B in order to get her point across? It doesn't have to be that way. This episode will show you how to keep your dignity while you stand up for your values, what you want to do, your beliefs, your unique situations, and how all if it really isn't anyone's business but your own.
Big credits go to Kimberly Snyder's "Feel Good Podcast", episode 687. Go get Kimberly's most recent book, "You Are More Than You Think You Are." Her book helped me find my inner confidence and self so I could figure out how to communicate my boundaries in a healthy way- for myself!
