Show Notes:
Your personal boundaries are about your own truth and what you want in your life, not about manipulating people into adhering to your standards. In this episode, I detail what boundaries are, why they’re important, and explain how setting boundaries is related to your happiness.
I offer up different scenarios where you can set loving, respectful boundaries. By clearly communicating your request and the consequences if it’s not met, it allows you to build relationships in a much closer, authentic way. When you uphold your boundaries, you avoid situations where you feel resentful, disappointed, or taken advantage of.
I also break down a process for getting really clear on where you draw the line in your life. I share questions to help you understand your boundaries and where they come from so that they become more natural to uphold. Listen in to learn more about boundaries and protecting your peace.

About Your Host
I’m Cecelia, and I am passionate about helping people live the life they want to live and feel how they want to feel in their life. We do this together using mindset tools, nervous system regulation, and curious inquiry. I know that enjoying your life, feeling calm and even joyful is available to you.
If you’re ready to start right now, grab a recent workshop replay here on creating momentum.
Personally, I manifest in many ways- partner, mother, coach, sister, friend, daughter, citizen, feminist. I live with my husband and children way downeast Maine on a little bridge-connected island (after spending my first 35 years in cities). It’s beautiful here with the ocean and the wind.
I help my clients make big and small changes in life one step at a time.
No matter what’s happening in your life right now, I know you can feel different. I know that by working with your brain and nervous system, you can feel calm, content, joyful, AND you can still go after the big and small goals in your life (getting there will just feel different).
This process is simple and approachable.
You’re probably thinking- but it won’t work for me. I’ve tried it all or I was recently diagnosed with ADHD or I’m too old. But I promise, if you’re open to it, this work is not only transformative but suited for so many different kinds of people and brains.
