For many people, boundaries feel uncomfortable because they were never modelled as healthy.

Many of us were never taught how to be with our emotions. But emotions don’t disappear when they’re ignored. They wait.

There’s a specific kind of tiredness that doesn’t come from doing too much — it comes from trying to be enough.

The value and importance in setting boundaries is not something we learn about or see people practice well. Saying no or taking space feels selfish. But is it?

A person’s worth is not defined by academics, achievements or accomplishments - yet that is what we are taught to chase.
