“Good fences make good neighbors (clients and co-workers too!)”
Ok! Today we are going to start a discussion on boundaries. (Yeah! Huge roar from the crowd!!) And I say START the discussion because this is a topic that has many layers. We will be revisiting this topic and coming at it from different perspectives so you can find a way to think about this concept that works for you.
Today I am inviting you to watch a video titled Hump Day RelationTIP #16: How Are Your Boundaries. This video, by my life coach Jana Kellam, is an episode from her weekly Wednesday Facebook Live video series (hence the video’s Hump Day reference). Within this video, she talks about boundaries in relationships, because really, EVERYTHING is a relationship – you with yourself, your co-workers, your clients and your romantic partner.
So I invite you to watch this video as the beginning of our discussion on boundaries. Here are some ideas to watch for in the video:
- What is a boundary?
- What are the different types of boundaries?
- How can I create a boundary?
- How can I know if I have crossed someone else’s boundary?
You will also find a link to her e-book series “Lessons from Jove”, based on the equine facilitated experiential learning (EFEL) work with her beloved horse, Jove. This lesson reiterates the video’s message with some added wisdom from Jove. Feel free to check it out as well!
I hope you enjoy Jana’s video and I’ll see you next week with a deeper look into boundaries, energy profiles and creating the way you want to be seen in the world.
And, as always, please leave me comments about how this idea of the boundary continuum resonated with you at pamela@healthyselfdvm.com.
If you would like to talk one on one with me, set up a time here for a free 1 hr conversation where we can talk about your boundaries and how you can create healthy ones.
