Episode notes
You Only Control Your Response
- You cannot control other people's actions or emotions, only your response to them.
- Accepting this frees energy spent trying to change others and reduces burnout.
Define Boundaries As Your Own Actions
- Set boundaries by deciding what you will do if someone crosses a line, not by trying to change them.
- Use clear actions like walking away or not responding as your boundary enforcement.
Enforce Boundaries Quietly And Consistently
- You don't always have to announce boundaries; you can privately decide them and act accordingly.
- Choose which consequences you will accept, then consistently follow through so others learn the limit.
