Summary

How do you relate to time? 

Are you someone who’s always late or meticulously early? Do you schedule yourself within an inch of your life? Do discrepancies in your relationship with time ever create conflict with others?

If you’re nodding your head, then this episode is for you, my friend. I’m breaking down time boundaries and how they can become disordered. You’ll also learn how to better negotiate time boundaries with yourself and others for a more harmonious relationship with time (seeing as how it IS just a construct in our minds!)

Well, hello there. It's me Terry Cole and welcome to the special Best of December series on the Terry

0:06.7

Cole show. It has been so much fun. So all month long, we've been revisiting the top five most

0:13.7

loved episodes of all time of the Terry Cole show. And I'm so excited to take this journey

0:17.8

through the greatest hits with you. It really is fun for me.

0:21.7

So today we're finishing things off with the most listened to podcast. When my team pulled

0:26.2

the numbers and told me that this was our most listened to pod ever, right? Ever listened to.

0:31.9

I was honestly surprised. But it goes to show how much the topic resonates with so many of you out there. In this episode,

0:39.5

I dive deep into the topic of time boundaries. Yes. Wouldn't you have thought it was something

0:45.5

about narcissism or something else? Time boundaries. That was our most listened to podcast episode.

0:50.7

So before we jump in, I want to share a new idea about just how important these

0:54.9

boundaries are, not only in our relationships with others, but in our relationships with

0:59.9

ourselves. Because every time we say yes to squeezing in just one more thing or rushing because

1:06.0

we're over-scheduled, we're actually saying no to a little bit of our own internal piece. Setting gentle

1:13.9

boundaries around time isn't about controlling the clock. It's about making room for things that

1:19.6

truly fill us up and letting go of that never enough time feeling, which is so bad for your

1:26.2

nervous system. It is so stress-inducing. So if you've ever

1:29.5

struggled with feeling rushed, being late, or feeling resentful over how you actually spend your

1:33.9

time, this episode is for you. And if you're new here, well, hello and welcome. Be sure to

peaceful relationship with time.

Here we go.

This is the Terry Cole show, and as you might have guessed, I'm your host, Terry Cole.
