Hi, everybody. Welcome to Ami the Asshole Podcast. I'm Danny Vega, joined today by a very special guest, one of our executive, producer, patrons, one of the highest tiers possible. Thank you so much for supporting the pod and for coming on the show today, James.

Hey, thanks, Danny. Happy to be here. It's great to see you. I know we both had insane

February's. We don't need to bore everyone with the minutia of our hustler lifestyles, but I was

happy we could relate on this note. Totally. Yeah, it's nice to know that somebody else was in a

sprint at the same time. It's good to know that

there's like family out there, even though you don't always know when you're in it.

Yes, we are surviving. But you did mention something pretty juicy. You said you have some

weak boundaries, sometimes, some of the time. And i always mentioned my little boundaries book boundaries

after apathical pathological relationship by adeline birch which i believe you characterize as

quote very intense which is fair it's fair adeline birch she's getting in there she is and and it's

funny that like when i like brought up boundaries, I was like

kind of thinking like more in like a grander scheme. And so then I was like looking at these quotes and I was

like, wow, yeah, okay, yep, okay. Those are definitely also boundary things too. And I really like a lot

of these quotes. Some of them are abridged because I think when I say like I

sometimes struggle with weak boundaries, it can manifest in so many different ways. And so that's why I

care about them so much and why I'm like actively working on kind of like analyzing them and like

what comes up for me when I set them because I still I don't know if you

have this issue too but like I still get this like feeling when I feel like I have to like

keep up with too much or especially when it comes to like taking time for myself it's really hard for me

to do and it's really hard to do that when I'm stressed so when I'm when I'm talking about weak boundaries sometimes I'm thinking, it's really hard for me to do. And it's really hard to do that when I'm stressed.

So when I'm talking about weak boundaries, sometimes I'm thinking like, okay, what are my

boundaries of myself? What are my boundaries ideally versus realistically? How do I set boundaries
