WHAT THIS EPISODES ABOUT…
Hello and welcome, I’m Shauna Hoffman
I thought for this week’s podcast I would delve into boundaries. It’s funny, one of my original ideas for this podcast is the A to Z of self-awareness. Well, since I have done quite a few episodes on what awareness is it’s time for me to go to B. Boundaries! Stick with me as I navigate the whole alphabet of self-awareness.
So we hear the word “boundaries” thrown around a lot in the personal growth world. Let’s delve into the big bad and beautiful of boundaries in your world.
Basically, a boundary is a personal guideline you set up for yourself. Limitations that guide you to your own behavior and the kind of behavior you accept from others. Personal boundaries in the simplest terms are what you create to establish how other people treat you. Or how they behave when they are around you. When you have healthy boundaries you empower your relationships to be truly caring, emotionally respectful, and appropriate. Most importantly these are the kind of limitations you put on yourself and around yourself to keep you safe. These boundaries can be anything from physical boundaries, to emotional, social media, material, financial boundaries, sexual boundaries, personal space boundaries, tolerance. WOW! Where do we begin?
First, let’s delve into the reality that self-awareness and boundaries go hand in hand. Sometimes in order to set boundaries, you have to be really self-aware of what you DON’T want in life or in a relationship. You need to be able to check in with your own needs, emotions, hurts, growth. All that stuff that is wrapped up in self-awareness. You need to be able to see what is working in your life and what isn’t.
