The Struggle with Boundaries

For many sensitive and empathetic people, boundaries can feel like walls that shut others out. You might worry that setting limits makes you selfish, unkind, or difficult. So you overextend, over-give, and eventually, burn out.

But boundaries aren't about pushing people away—they are about defining where you end and others begin. They are the framework that allows authentic connection to flourish without resentment.

2

Overcoming Guilt

Guilt is often the biggest barrier to setting boundaries. We'll explore the roots of this guilt and learn to differentiate between healthy empathy and self-abandonment.

3

Communicating with Clarity

Learn to express your limits clearly, kindly, and firmly. You don't need to justify or over-explain your right to safety and peace.
