Have you ever felt overwhelmed or disrespected? Maybe you got mad at someone for something they did and were offended.  If you’ve ever experienced any of the above, you may need stronger boundaries in your life.

Setting healthy boundaries isn't always easy. You may be afraid of hurting other people’s feelings, fear the repercussions of standing up for what’s important to you, have FOMO, or it didn't feel safe in your childhood to express yourself so you stopped speaking up. Not having healthy boundaries can lead to stress, burnout, and damaged and failed relationships.

Many of us struggle with setting boundaries because we’re afraid of hurting other people’s feelings or because we fear the repercussions of standing up for what’s important to us, which can lead to stress, burnout, and damaged and failed relationships.


In today's episode, I dive into the topic of boundaries because this one word is vast and creeps into all parts of our lives whether we realize it or not. Understanding how you may have contributed to the situation and how to implement healthy boundaries can improve your mental and emotional well-being and create a more balanced life.


In this episode, you'll learn:


  • The definition of boundaries.
  • The six different types according to Nedra Glover Tawwab author of, “Set Boundaries, Find Peace.”
  • Common reasons why people fail to establish boundaries.
  • The price you might pay for not creating and maintaining boundaries. 
  • Why resentment and anger could be signs you need healthier boundaries.
  • What healthy boundaries look like. 
  • Exercises to help you become more in tune with your boundaries.
  • Tips to help you identify, communicate, and enforce your boundaries.

Join me as we explore how to set and maintain boundaries so you can find more freedom, peace, and empowerment in your life!

Much love,


Laurie

Confessions of a Freebird - Midlife, Divorce, Dating, Empty Nest, Well-Being, Mindset, Happiness

I'm the author of “Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go” and a somatic relationship coach. I love empowering women in midlife and beyond who are looking for more happiness, joy, freedom, and purpose.   If you are ready to find more authenticity within so you can reclaim the life that you left behind somewhere between diaper changes and kids graduating from school, tune in!  Have you ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”  What’s life like as an empty nester? What's after divorce? How do I grieve the loss of a spouse who passed away? How do I date later in life? How do I navigate being part of the sandwich generation? What is longevity and how do I take better care of myself as I age? How do I heal my trauma? How do I simply find more happiness and joy in my daily life? Then this podcast is for you! I'm a mother of four adult daughters, a divorcée, and a recovering caregiver. My podcast, Confessions of a Freebird, is your midlife best friend. On this podcast, I'll offer actionable steps, coaching tips, soulful thoughts, somatic tools, and feature experts that will help you with all things midlife and beyond. We will talk about sex, dating, divorce, loss, grief, midlife reinvention and empowerment, finances and so much more. I also share my confessions and successes that have helped me intentionally redesign my life so you can skip the suffering I experienced and start making the most of your second or third act, one confession at a time. Because every relationship begins with ourselves!XO, Laurie Connect with me:www.laurieejames.com Explore working with me 1:1 - https://lauriejames.as.me/schedule.php Purchase my book, Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go, https://www.laurieejames.com/book IG: https://www.instagram.com/laurie.james/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/laurie.james.79219754
