It is impossible to have a healthy relationship without setting boundaries. Boundaries are an important part of any relationship, whether it is between two people or within a marriage. Boundaries help us to understand each other’s needs and respect each other’s space, allowing us to build trust and maintain healthy relationships. This can help both parties thrive and avoid unnecessary conflict. However, without clearly communicated boundaries, it can be hard for someone to know how they should interact with you, leaving them feeling confused and frustrated, so it’s important to speak up about what your limits are.

Join the conversation and learn the importance of setting boundaries in your relationships, the best ways to do it, and what makes others respect and value the boundaries you set. Sasha Harris-Greenidge, a Certified IGNITE Mindset Coach, joins us to help us unravel this concept. She holds a BA in Psychology. She is also a wife and mother of 2 beautiful children.
