Quotes:

• "Boundaries make people feel safe. If people can't feel your boundary, they don't really feel safe with you." 
• "If you don't learn how to manage your energy and you're not taking responsibility for your boundaries, you can become an energy vampire."
•  "Having boundaries breeds respect. So when we set clear, kind, and compassionate boundaries, people respect us."
• "Empaths have this like spongy kind of porous energy field... The sponge is full, and then you go into something called empathic overload."
• "We can't really trust people unless we can trust their ability to say no."
• "When you say yes, when you need to say no, you're not actually doing anyone else a favor. They know it doesn't feel good and makes you untrustworthy."
