When Others Don't Respect Your Boundaries
Description
Today's episode tackles a common struggle many face: setting and maintaining boundaries.
Using fictional examples, we explore scenarios where boundaries are tested and compromised.
Joann, a work-from-home mom, sets clear boundaries with her children, only to find them ignored when her daughter interrupts her work.
Similarly, Lisa faces boundary challenges at work when her boss disregards her request not to take on new clients.
We delve into the three crucial components of effective boundaries: clear definition, recognition of boundary violations, and predetermined actions.
We must understand that we must enforce boundaries, even when others push back. Building resilience to tolerate discomfort is key to upholding boundaries without caving to external pressure.
