COMPOSURE co-author and trauma therapist Joshua Isaac Smith joins host Drew Tweedy in a conversation about the origins of boundaries. Joshua tackles challenging questions about our boundaries: 

  • Where do our boundaries come from? 
  • What’s the cost of putting our own needs last? 
  • How do we evaluate our own boundaries, and how can we start to shift away from them when they’re no longer serving us?

Joshua sheds light on what we can do to strengthen our boundaries, as well as practices we can use in the moment when we're triggered by a boundary violation. A few highlights:

  • Feeling guilty about saying “no” to things is a key sign of a weak boundary
  • Asking questions before reacting can help avoid taking things personally
  • Having self-compassion is absolutely essential to strengthen our boundaries
