The Divine Play Podcast S2 Ep 11: The 'B' Word - Why Setting Boundaries is So Hard

In this episode, Shannon and Mirilena dive deep into the challenging yet crucial topic of boundaries. Why is the concept of boundaries so difficult for so many of us to grasp and enforce?

  • Responsibility for Our Boundaries: We explore the idea that our boundaries are our own responsibility. It's up to us to set, communicate, and maintain them.
  • The Importance of Healthy Relationships: Understanding and respecting boundaries is foundational to creating and maintaining healthy relationships.
  • Real-Life Example: Mirilena shares a thought-provoking message she came across on Reddit, encouraging a woman to take responsibility for her own baggage.
  • When Boundaries are Crossed: What happens when someone crosses your boundaries? Do you find yourself people-pleasing or going into a freeze response?
  • Staying in Leadership: Learn how to stay in your own leadership and take decisive action when your boundaries are tested.
  • Communication is Key: If we don’t speak up when someone crosses our boundaries, whose fault is it really? We discuss how silence can lead to misunderstandings and resentment.
  • Trigger Responses: We delve into how easily we can get triggered and slip into autopilot responses like anger.

Join us for an enlightening conversation on how we can effectively set and maintain our boundaries, and in doing so, foster healthier and more respectful relationships.


Tell Us.....

Are your triggers your responsibility or someone else's???
