Topics of conversation: BOUNDARIES what they are How to know if you need a boundary How to enforce them The difference between boundaries & walls Two of my favorites quotes around boundaries that I wanted to share from the pod today: "The only people who are going to mind you enforcing healthy boundaries are the ones who are benefiting from you having none." "What you say NO to determines the success of that you say YES too." Julia also asks me some interesting questions like: What are my top three nonnegotiable health practices? Am I happy? How I define success? What would I tell my younger self?
