May 13, 2025

Do you struggle with setting boundaries because it feels selfish or wrong to put your preferences or needs first?
Do you inadvertently trample on other people’s boundaries? (Hyper-helping, auto-advice giving, etc.)
Or are you a newly identified high-functioning codependent (HFC) wondering why it’s especially tough to set boundaries?
Then you’re in the right place. In this episode, I am breaking down why it’s challenging to set, stick to, and respect other people’s boundaries, particularly as HFCs.
This is part one, and in part two (coming next week), we’ll cover boundary scripts and the different types of boundaries you might want to consider setting.
