Hey everyone, welcome to Anxiety, I’m So Done With You! I’m Dr. Jodi, and I’m excited to have you here with me. Tonight, we're diving into a topic that’s essential for maintaining our well-being: setting awesome personal boundaries. As a psychotherapist for over 28 years, I've seen firsthand how crucial it is to establish boundaries for our relationships, schedules, and even with ourselves. Whether you’re a teen, a parent, an educator, or simply someone navigating this overwhelming world, today’s episode will equip you with the tools you need to feel safer, more respected, and empowered. So grab a pen and paper because I’m giving you all the details you need to create positive boundaries that transform your life!
In this empowering episode, Dr. Jodi dives deep into the art and science of setting personal boundaries. She breaks down the importance of boundaries for emotional safety, respect, and a sense of belonging, and explains why they are vital for managing anxiety and stress. You’ll learn about the five different types of boundaries: physical, time, conversational, relationship, and personal. Dr. Jodi provides practical guidance on how to determine your boundary needs and gives examples of how to implement them in various contexts.
The episode also covers the tricky territory of dealing with people who don’t respect your boundaries, including tips for energetically and physically distancing yourself from toxic behaviors. Dr. Jodi introduces powerful visualizations to help protect your energy and offers heartfelt advice for those who struggle with people-pleasing.
