Love the discussion about nuance with boundaries. Context is such a big factor. I often notice people either having no boundaries (which fosters resentment, leads to burn out - sometimes even abuse) or over correcting in the other direction, putting up so many boundaries and never being willing to put themselves in a position of discomfort or which requires any self sacrifice. I think it’s important to know our own limits and needs so that we can show up effectively in our lives, but it’s also important to be willing to show up for others and to get out of our comfort zones sometimes, which having healthy boundaries allows us to do. It’s not a perfect science, and there’s often a lot of trial and error, but I think that balance is key.
We do episodes with partners almost every season! This season instead of romantic partners, we did best friends. Will probably continue to bring on different types of relationship dynamics moving forward.

Thank you! 🙏
That pink eye make up and yellow jumper plus hair highlights really suits you Xannie 🤩
It would be good to hear from BPD partners too. Maybe they should make a channel.
