S2, Ep 4 Tips & Tricks on Establishing Healthy Boundaries
03/30/22 • 33 min
Welcome to part 2 of a 3 part series on time & boundaries.
In episode 3 we explored why boundaries and time management were so important and why NOW is the right time. In this episode we dig down on our boundaries and start to consider personality traits, and why its important to communicate your boundaries - as cultural, demographic, generational and lived experience backgrounds result in others never really knowing what you need... unless you tell them.
Its a great episode we look forward to you listening to this one & then in our next pod we deep dive on time management tips and tricks.
ACTION CHALLENGE
Our action challenge for this episode is two fold.
#1 If you didn’t get a chance to track your time for a week to understand where it really goes then this in your time, along with energy tracking feels important particularly if you are feeling quite burned out, or drained at the end of each day.
#2 Then it's time to take action - one boundary tool each week for the next few weeks until you are finding more time to work on your vision!
