In Part 1 I talk about the difference between telling people your boundaries versus living them. I discuss how boundaries are about protecting and honouring ourselves and our standards rather than controlling the behaviour of others. I hone in on the concept of consequences and acknowledge how difficult they are to act out because it places the consequence of a crossed boundary on us and not on the other person. In Part 2 I answer a listener question about how to mourn the death of a relationship they have fantasized about and exaggerated in their mind. I contextualize fantasy as a coping mechanism and not shameful and assure them that fantasy is just as painful as reality. I discuss shame and abandonment issues. In Part 3 I invite a dear friend Taylor Wallis on the show to discuss our obsession with cults, through the lens of the show Keep Sweet, Pray and Obey.
