EP01: The Art of Setting Boundaries — with Chris Ray

Chris and I kick off this conversation with my favorite topic of all time: boundaries. It has been the thing I’ve had to work on the most; once I realized I didn’t have any, I set out to go find out what they were about and how to both set and uphold them in all types of relationships. We discuss the importance of setting boundaries in relationships, understanding emotional regulation, and the challenges of navigating personal needs while supporting others.  Throughout this episode Chris emphasizes the significance of self-awareness, the value of time, and how practicing self-care allows for better support of others. He also talks about how to manage empathy so it doesn’t lead to compassion fatigue, the importance of celebrating small wins and how recovery is a continuous journey of self-discovery. Full show notes at https://www.netanyaallyson.com/episodes/01
