EP 10: To Communicate or Not Communicate Our Boundaries FT. Calix Vu-Bui

Welcome to part 2 of our three part series on boundaries! In the last episode, Daysha went over what boundaries are and how we can better discover our own. Knowing our own boundaries, however, is the easy part. Being able to communicate them to our loved ones is the real challenge, ok?!So, for this episode, she taps the realest mental health professional to go over how we can not be so nervous when sharing our boundaries with others.

She is well-known for having both a warm and optimistic presence, as well as a direct, no nonsense way of working with patients.

You gotta feel your feelings."To connect with Calix:IG: yourbestlife.calix RESOURCES:Want to hear new episodes 2 days early?
