Repeating a boundary is very helpful.

Perhaps we need to repeat more often and move away from the idea that saying it once is enough.

We're trying to change the relationship and sometimes that change requires patience and practice.

These last few years have tested our boundaries on nearly every level.

Work, friendship, family community, geography, politics, religions, social issues, love, and well-being.

Question is, how do you create and uphold boundaries that are clear and healthy and constructive,

while also acknowledging the nuance and the kindness and understanding this moment demands?

Well, my guess today, Nedroglava Toob, can help.

A licensed therapist and sought-after relationship expert, she has practiced relationship therapy

for a solid dozen plus years is the founder and owner of the group therapy practice,

kaleidoscope counseling. And every day she helps people create healthy relationships by

teaching them how to implement boundaries. Her philosophy is that a lack of boundaries and assertiveness

that actually want underlies most relationship issues. And her gift is to really help people create

healthy boundaries with themselves and others. Nedroglava is also the author of the New York Times

best-selling book, Set Boundaries Find Peace, a guide to reclaiming yourself,

and the Set Boundaries work both practical exercises for understanding your needs and

sending healthy limits. So excited to share this best of conversation with you. I'm Jonathan Fields,

and this is Good Life Project.
