50 | Boundary Basics: How to Overcome Guilt and Maintain Your Boundaries Pt. 2

You know what healthy boundaries look like, but how do you actually set them? Part one of our Boundaries Workshop was all about awareness, but this episode will help you take action.

Laurie further explores why boundary-setting can feel so difficult and how we can avoid the exhaustion, resentment, and overwhelm that builds when boundaries aren't honored — by you or others. You'll walk away with tools and strategies to overcome the guilt of saying "no," shift your mindset, and manage your emotions as you practice boundary work.

Tune in to walk through our Healthy Boundaries Checklist and get quick tips for maintaining healthy boundaries!
