The fallout of a boundary is usually a war. Here is how to survive it.You watched yesterday’s video on the 3 Ways to Set Boundaries with a Narcissist, but now you’re living through the reaction. Why do they get more aggressive when you say "no"?

In today's LIVE, we are discussing:The Smear Campaign: Why they tell everyone you're the "abuser" the moment you set a limit.Guilt Tripping: How they use your empathy to make you feel bad for having needs.The Escalation: Why things get worse before they get better (The Extinction Burst).Live Q&A: I’ll be translating your specific situations in real-time.Don't let their reaction bait you back into the cycle. Let’s talk about how to hold the line.Connect with Lee:My Courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://courses.mentalhealness.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 1-on-1 Coaching Calls: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠All My Link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://beacons.page/mentalhealness ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on Instagram/TikTok: @mentalhealnesssIf this episode helped you gain clarity, please leave a 5-star review on Spotify!
