14. Boundaries with Family and Partners Filled to Flourish

In this episode of the Filled to Flourish podcast we examine the topic of boundaries with more detail and nuance than a lot of boundaries conversations. We explore this topic a lot with each other and clients, and wanted to bring some of that more complicated conversation to the podcast.
We discuss:
-Boundary basics
-Power, autonomy and systems
-When defensiveness is normal, when it's harmful
-Why those closest to us might have such a hard time with our boundaries
-Family systems and roles
-Shared and unshared boundaries
-How powerfully healing it can be when someone responds well to our boundaries
-What people's reaction to your boundaries can tell you about your relationship
