Send us Fan MailWe throw the word "boundary" around constantly — but do we actually know what one is? In this episode, we're getting real about what boundaries actually are (hint: they're not walls, ultimatums, or punishment), why they're so hard to set, and why they feel even harder to keep. Whether you've been boundary-stomped by a family member, guilt-tripped by a friend, or you're not even sure you've ever set one in your life — this one's for you.We'll dig into the difference between a boundary and a preference, why people-pleasers struggle most with this, and what it actually sounds like to hold a boundary without over-explaining, apologizing, or blowing up your relationships in the process.Spoiler: a boundary isn't about controlling other people. It's about knowing yourself well enough to say this is where I end and you begin — and meaning it.Checkout my 2017 TEDx Charlotte Talk, "The Gift of No" https://bit.ly/thegiftofno2017
