BEST OF: Setting Boundaries
b'It often becomes clear to us where our boundaries should have been set only after those lines have been crossed and left far behind. But whether it\'s with overbearing extended family members or partners who leave socks on the floor, how do we create effective boundaries? Especially after it\'s been established that we\'re not very good at it, and especially in a world that doesn\'t very much like women who aren\'t afraid to set them?\\nIn this "Best Of" episode we discuss why boundaries should be set early and often\\u2013 and not just in problematic relationships, either. Healthy boundaries with our spouses, partners, and co-workers are what make long-term relationships possible. And don\'t forget positive boundaries. Want to start setting aside more money each month? Having one date night a week, or one weekend morning when you get to sleep in? It starts with saying so.\\nHere are links to some writing on the topic that we discuss in this episode:\\n\\nFatherly:\\xa016 Tips For Creating Healthy Boundaries With Your Extended Family\\n\\n\\nMark Manson:\\xa0Boundaries\\n\\n\\nElizabeth Earnshaw for Mind Body Green:\\xa0A Therapist Explains 6 Things People Get Wrong About Setting Boundaries\\n\\n\\nSarah Saweikis for Medium:\\xa0Scared to Set Boundaries?
