Boundaries are often misunderstood as selfish, but they’re one of the most empowering ways to protect your emotional wellness and create healthier relationships. In this episode, explore five strategies for setting boundaries, grounded in the Adult Chair® Model. Learn how to communicate assertively, set consequences, say no without guilt, and build resilience when faced with resistance. Boundaries aren’t about controlling others—they’re about teaching people how to treat you while fostering trust and mutual respect. When you set and maintain boundaries, you honor yourself, protect your energy, and create space for deeper, more fulfilling relationships.
