How to STOP Being A Pushover, Set Boundaries and Stand Your GROUND!

Published: Oct. 6, 2021, 12:30 p.m.

Boundaries don\u2019t push people away, they can actually make relationships closer. Anna Yusim says, \u201cthe stronger your boundaries, the closer you can get to somebody.\u201d Have you ever stopped to think about boundaries in that way? I\u2019m sure many of you, myself included, are guilty of thinking if we have stronger boundaries we\u2019ll end up pushing people away. The fear we face of disappointing people or somehow offending them can easily keep us stuck in a space of not honoring ourselves. This episode is for all the strong women (even if you don\u2019t feel strong every day) that need a little more assurance that it\u2019s not only okay to have boundaries, but it\u2019s essential to the health of your relationships and critical for your own mental health. Start standing up for yourself (no one else can) and prioritize you, your needs, and what matters for you to flourish in the life you choose to live.\xa0\n\nSHOW NOTES:\xa0\nTip #1 | Communicate Your Boundary [0:34]\nTip #2 | Set Boundaries with Those Close to You [5:34]\nTip #3 | Know Who\u2019s In Your Corner [14:03]\nTip #4 | Get Clear on Your Priorities [18:30]\nTip #5 | Separate work from your personal life [22:20]\nTip #6 | Stand up for yourself [27:30]\nTip #7 | Decide if the boundary is worth breaking [32:15]\xa0\n\nFollow Anna Yusim: https://www.annayusim.com/\nFollow Sara Jakes Roberts: https://sarahjakesroberts.com/\nFollow Chalene Johnson: https://www.chalenejohnson.com/\nFollow Nicole Lepera: https://theholisticpsychologist.com/\nFollow Natalie Ellis: https://bossbabe.com/\nFollow Nedra Glover Tawwab: https://www.nedratawwab.com/\nFollow Melissa Urban: https://whole30.com/\n\nCheck out our sponsors:\xa0\nAthletic Greens: Go to https://athleticgreens.com/lisa and receive a FREE 1 year supply of Vitamin D AND 5 free travel packs with your first purchase!\nBlinkist: Go to https://blinkist.com/woi Try it FREE for 7 days and save 25% off your new subscription.\n\nAre You Ready for EXTRA Impact?\nCalling all Badasses!!
