Ep 206: Boundaries 101 with Nedra Glover Tawwab

In this episode of Cheaper than Therapy the Podcast, we sat down with Nedra Glover Tawwab, MSW, LCSW - author of three bestselling books, licensed therapist, and renowned relationship expert with 15 years of experience in relationship therapy. She is the founder of Kaleidoscope Counseling, where she aids individuals in cultivating healthy relationships through boundary implementation. Nedra's approach is grounded in the belief that many relationship issues stem from a lack of boundaries and assertiveness. Some Takeaways from this Episode: ✨Boundaries are Positive: While boundaries are often seen as a way to keep people out, setting boundaries for yourself within relationships with others creates an innate sense of security and trust, rather than seeking it externally, leading to healthier, balanced, and more authentic relationships ✨  Motherhood and Personal Capacity: Becoming a parent reduces the capacity you have for taking on the responsibility of other peoples’ problems and creates more invisible labor for your day to day, making it absolutely crucial to have open conversations within relationships, and setting boundaries to take care of your well-being ✨ Social Media has Limits: It’s important to remember the humanness behind social media and set boundaries for sharing, interacting, as well as consuming to protect our time, mental health, and maintain authentic connections with others 🎙 This podcast is definitely Cheaper than Therapy Connect with Nedra: Website Instagram If you find value in these conversations, please take a moment to rate and review the podcast.
