Setting healthy and appropriate boundaries is vital for our health–people who struggle to prioritize themselves have also been shown to fall ill most often. The question of how to set boundaries, however, may not be the right question to start with. Instead, what we need to unpack first is: why is boundary setting so hard?
In today’s discussion with Annie Hopkins, a pelvic floor physical therapist and owner of Full Bloom Wellness, Erin and Annie go over the definition of boundaries and why self-identity and self-worth is required for healthy boundary setting. Listeners will also learn the surprising brain-based distinction between compassion and empathy, and how to care for others without burning out.
