It’s time to go from boundaryless to boundless!
Learn to set boundaries that allow you to build loving and nurturing relationships.
It’s 5pm and you’re finishing work. You skipped lunch and you’re starving but, first, you have to call your friend back. They’re going through a lot at work and they rely on your help and support.
After a lengthy call, you head over to your parent’s home for your weekly dinner. You’d rather be relaxing on the couch but it’s not worth the guilt you’d feel for skipping it.
When you’re finally able to decompress, you see a notification light up your phone screen. You say you’ll just check this one email but you end up sitting at your computer, putting in another two or three hours of work before bed.
Sound familiar? This is the boundaryless life.
Now imagine how it would feel to do things from a place of choice, and not obligation?
How would it feel to make time for your relationships but knowing that you have the power to choose how much time that is?
How would it feel to put your needs first, to say “no” and, instead of feeling guilty, feeling free?
Live a boundless life
I practice what I preach.
I truly believe that relationships are such a significant part of our lives. They affect our satisfaction with life and add to the joy that we experience if we have genuine and authentic connections.
I do my best to show up in my relationships as a loving, caring, nonjudgmental person. I am human and I struggle at times but I am very self-aware and I integrate all that I have learned into my own relationships.
Healthy boundaries are necessary components for self-care.
Without boundaries, we feel depleted, taken advantage of, taken for granted, or intruded upon.
What we forget is boundaries are a skill we consistently work on to protect our own energy.
Whether it’s in work or in our personal relationships, poor boundaries may lead to resentment, guilt, anger, and burnout.
Boundaries help us take care of ourselves by giving us permission to say NO to things, to not take everything on. Boundaries draw a clear line around what is ok for us and what is not.

Boundaries are essentially about self-control.
When you build a fence around your yard, you do not build it to dictate how your neighbor behaves. You build it around your own yard so that you can maintain control of what happens to your property.
Personal boundaries are similar. Since we have no control over another person's behavior, we set a boundary to state how we expect to be treated and clarify what we will do if we are treated in a way that we don't like. Essentially, we’re setting a boundary with the only person we can control: ourselves.
Boundaries are essential to healthy relationships and, really, a healthy life.
Setting and sustaining boundaries is a skill.
