Summary
Loving someone and treating them with love are two different things. Dr. Henry Cloud reminds us of what we can do to be more proactive in our loving relationships. Written question: Do physical activities help people heal from trauma? Kerri is housing kids from a youth group and wants advice on how to help a traumatized 17 year old open up. Sarah feels like a crappy person and doesn't know why. What can do to get started unpacking these feelings? Margie is putting up simple boundaries and her in-laws cross them all the time. What is the right response when people cross your boundaries?
Having trouble setting boundaries? Are you worried that boundaries go against your Christianity? Dr. Henry Cloud lays the foundation for how to build and maintain healthy boundaries that align with Christian principles.

| 0:11.7 | It's another new day for all of us every day, right? And a new day that you can start working on something. |
| 0:18.8 | The kind of stuff we talk about here, your clinical |
| 0:20.8 | issues, your relationships, your performance problems, all that kind of stuff. If you need to move |
| 0:27.3 | from just surviving to thriving, a couple of quick announcements, we do have a webinar coming up next month. And our webinars are something, they're live events |

| 0:50.0 | boundaries and you feel bad about it? Feel guilty or feel afraid? Well, that's a big problem, right? |
| 0:57.6 | Because boundaries are supposed to be good, but then you feel selfish or like you're not being |

| 1:39.3 | we can have boundaries that I don't think we should feel good about, much less God, because they're not loving |
| 1:45.6 | boundaries and they're not really in the service of anything but self-centeredness. |
