This week on the Thinking Like a Boss Podcast, we are continuing with part two of our four part series on Boundaries Like a Boss. There is one person in particular you need to set boundaries with first, and that is yourself. Many of us think setting boundaries means laying down a line for other people not to cross. But the funny thing is, we actually cross our own boundaries more often than others do. 

We often become bitter and frustrated with others, when really, we never set solid boundaries with ourselves from the start. It’s scary and uncomfortable to set them, let alone nurture them as we go through life. But hear me out, once you begin to pay attention to your intuition around your boundaries, they become easier to put in place.

In this episode, Kate talks about why it’s important we don’t cross our own boundaries, why we do it in the first place,and offers specific ways we can become more aware of our own boundaries - and stick to them.
