But Melissa explains that boundaries are actually designed to improve your relationships with others by letting people know the actions that you will take to protect your own needs and feelings. So tune in as we learn Melissa’s Green, Yellow and Red framework for setting boundaries, why it’s important to proactively establish them early on in your relationships, and why we need to rid ourselves of the narrative that it’s “mean” or “selfish”  to have boundaries in the first place.Melissa is a six-time New York Times bestselling author, the co-founder and CEO of the wildly popular Whole30 nutritional program, and host of the Do the Thing podcast.  Melissa has helped millions of people live their best lives through the work she does in the health and mental wellness spaces.Listen to our full episode with Melissa here!Tune in every Monday for an expert dose of life advice in under 10 minutes.For show notes and more adulting tips, visit: teachmehowtoadult.caSign up for our monthly adulting newsletter:teachmehowtoadult.ca/newsletter Follow us on the ‘gram:@teachmehowtoadultpodcast @yunggillianaire@cailynmichaanFollow MelissaBuy Melissa’s book: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/0735243212 Subscribe to my Substack:teachmehowtoadult.substack.comFollow us on the ‘gram:@[email protected] on TikTok: @teachmehowtoadultSubscribe on YouTube
