Hey guys, welcome, welcome to Heal Survive and Thrive. This week we are, we're going to dive

into a pretty legit topic because boundaries is something that if you're codependent,

you're coming out of a toxic relationship, you've been with someone who's narcissistic,

you don't have them. Anyone who struggles with low self-esteem, poor, you know, not a ton of standards. I mean,

I think we all have standards, but the higher the standard, the more comfortable you feel with

enforcing boundaries. And boundaries are everything. You have to be able to verbally communicate

with people. You have to be able to tell people what you think and how you feel without, I don't want to say pushback because you're going to get pushback from a toxic

person, not a healthy person, but it'll make you feel uncomfortable in the beginning because it's

not something that you've ever been used to doing. And you're going to have to get comfortable

with people not liking your boundaries, respecting your boundaries.

But it is part of life.

I'm sorry, it's a part of being a grown up.

It's part of being an adult.

We have to be able to communicate with people calmly, hold on to ourselves while someone

loses their shit and gets, you know, unhappy with what is that we have to say? You're protecting

your peace, your energy, your well-being. And let's be honest, most of us weren't really taught

how to have boundaries. I remember growing up, my mom would just burst into my room whenever

she felt like it. There was no knocking on the door. There was no respecting of my own space. So and boundaries is like it's such a big thing in terms of your next

relationship. Because remember, it's your standards and then it's boundaries. If you grew up

in a home where boundaries weren't respected or if you've been in relationships

with someone who's toxic, then you need help.

I'm sorry, but you need some help with boundaries.
