It is time to discuss BOUNDARIES-- let's speak up about the unspoken expectations in our families this time of year and talk about ways you can protect your peace.
We're talking BOUNDARIES in all forms in today's episode: gifting, kid behaviors, traditions, family, and even physical distance. Stephanie invites her bestie Sara to talk about all the ways we can set appropriate limits on actions and behavior to preserve a little more of our inner peace. Remember, when you mark off an area where everyone can "play nicely," it makes it a lot better for all those involved! Boundaries are not "mean" or "distancing"-- they are simply a way to encourage healthy relationships.
