Episode 7: Why are boundaries so hard to set?

The Best of You

The #1 question I get asked about is how to set boundaries.  

They are so important and so powerful, and yet they are so hard to set. 

We dive into the power of boundaries in this episode and I guide you through a real time exercise on taking that first step no matter what you are facing.  


1. Why is it so hard to set boundaries? 

2. What is the primary purpose of boundaries? 

3. What 2 skills does boundary setting require? 

4. What is the first step to setting boundaries? 

5. What does the Bible have to say about boundaries? 

6. An exercise to help you take a first step.  


Key Take Away: Boundaries are not primarily about saying no to other people. Boundaries are first and foremost about safeguarding the heart, mind, soul, and body God has given you.
