“If I don’t learn to take care of myself, who will?"

 Boundaries and confrontations are two very different things. One teaches others how we want to be treated and the other is getting in someone’s face to elicit change. Which one sounds better to you?

 In this podcast, we discuss the difference between the two and what, how and why it’s important to learn how to set effective boundaries. Unfortunately, most of us weren’t taught how to set boundaries so when we are faced with upsets or hurt we typically do one of the following: “suck it up" (and pretend nothing has happened), shun the person that hurt us and disown them or get angry, yell and/or rage.

 There is a healthier way! This episode explains how.
