Boundaries, Addiction & Shame
Manage episode 416913415 series 3509996
How can I set boundaries and stick to them?
This is one of the most common questions I get asked. We all try and set boundaries but so often we beat ourselves up for not sticking to them. But all it takes is a little tweak to make it work, and that’s what we’re going to cover in this episode.
I delve into my own struggles with boundaries and addiction, and the shame I have felt when I didn’t meet them. I also share tactics you can use to set better boundaries and break the cycles of addiction by celebrating small wins, radical honesty, and accountability.
So start noticing what you hide in the cabin of shame from, so you can solve it and challenge your own bullshit.
