Do you struggle to say no or feel drained by people who don’t respect your limits? Setting boundaries is one of the most important skills you can develop in sobriety—it helps you protect your energy, reduce stress, and stay committed to your recovery.
In this episode of the Quit Drinking Alcohol Podcast, we explore why boundaries are essential for lasting sobriety, how to communicate them with confidence, and practical strategies to maintain them even when it feels uncomfortable.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why poor boundaries can lead to burnout, resentment, and relapse.
- The different types of boundaries you may need in recovery—personal, social, and emotional.
- How to set clear limits and stand by them without guilt.
I’ll also share what boundary work looked like in my own recovery and how it helped me build a more peaceful, authentic life without alcohol.
