What do we actually mean when we talk about boundaries—and why do they bring up so much guilt, confusion, and defensiveness? Stefanie and Sarah discuss the difference between people-pleasing and genuinely caring for someone, why a boundary can sometimes be a rejection, and how protecting ourselves can become rigid when we are first learning to say no. They also explore receiving other people's boundaries, knowing when to explain ourselves, overcorrecting after years of putting others first, and developing enough trust in ourselves to move between giving, declining, protecting, and participating with greater flexibility.
