Ep 142: How To Have Friendship Boundaries // Draw The Line Series with Bianca Juarez Olthoff

<p>Have you turned your boundary line into a boundary wall? If you find yourself lonely because of unrealistic boundaries, today you can take a sledge hammer and Bring.The.Wall.Down. </p> <p>I want us to have a real talk and address the issues of isolation and loneliness that many people experience. I want to emphasize:</p> <ul> <li>The importance of community and relationships</li> <li>The need for boundaries in friendships </li> <li>The challenges that come with maintaining healthy relationships</li> <li>The different levels of friendships</li> <li>Friendship is not codependency</li> </ul> <p>In some cases we can find ourselves looking at our friends and thinking; “what the heck?” That’s because we don’t have a clear definition of what “friend" means and we’ve given access to the wrong people into our friendship circles. I want you to walk away knowing what friendship <strong>IS</strong> and <em>IS NOT.</em> </p> <p>Remember that<strong> true friendship and fulfillment can be found in Jesus.</strong></p> <p>Tag me <a href="http://instagram.com/biancaolthoff">@biancaolthoff</a> and let me know what healthy lines you’ve drawn in your life.</p> <p>Love you,</p> <p><a href="http://www.biancaolthoff.com">B</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><em>RESOURCES/LINKS</em></p> <p><a href="https://youtu.be/Jh0cGMHXI_0?si=2JPo_bdw04H6vlc9">Friends With Benefits // Relationship Boundaries // Bianca Olthoff</a></p> <p><a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJSaGGJB-0R8gydKuTxtO3rpJ7ZuGE6kM&si=t8jGfAAsGG-6t6_o">TFHOC Miseducation of Love Series</a> </p> <p><em>Quote</em></p> <p>People should be loved biblically, valued equally, but treated differently.</p> <p><em>Takeaways</em></p> <p>The benefits of community and relationships help against loneliness and isolation</p> <p>Different levels of friendship: casual, close & core</p> <p>The importance of investing in healthy friendships</p> <p>⋇</p> <p>Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together <a href="https://convoyofhope.org/bianca/">Donate here</a></p> <p>⋇</p> <p><a href="https://amzn.to/3MO74OC">Order Bianca’s new book GRIT DON’T QUIT</a></p> <p>⋇</p> <p><a href="https://www.biancaolthoff.com/gdq">The Grit Don’t Quit Bible Study is now available</a>. </p> <p>⋇</p> <p> So grateful to our sponsors!</p> <p><br>This episode is sponsored by NOTES® Candle.
