Healthy Boundaries

Setting healthy boundaries is an important part of building strong relationships and enjoying a work/life balance. Many women know this and want to set a boundary in their life but they aren't quite sure how to create one or how to know if a boundary they've already set is actually healthy.

In this episode of The Infinite Capacity Podcast, midlife mom coach Andrea Morton hosts a deep dive into healthy boundaries explaining what a boundary is, how to know when it is time to create one, how to know what kind of coach or therapist to work with when creating different kinds of boundaries, punitive vs. healthy boundaries, the steps involved in creating a healthy boundary and much more!

Using examples drawn from real life, the discussion will show how important emotions are in the establishing of boundaries and share thought provoking stories about how relationships can be protected or damaged by boundaries (or the lack thereof).

This episode is for any mother who has ever felt drained by a relationship in her life, or who has suspected she might need to create a personal or professional boundary.

Also, for those who may want to work with a licensed therapist on issues of creating boundaries for their physical safety - as promised in the episode - here are 3 resources in the United States that support mothers who need to protect themselves and their children:
