The topic of boundaries often comes up in my Facebook groups and with my clients.  If you’re in an unhappy marriage, getting divorced, or already divorced, boundaries are constantly shifting and changing. As you maneuver through divorce or get acclimated to life after divorce, you might be having to hold your boundaries more firmly than ever before.

Or maybe you’re reading this and thinking, “I really need to get me some boundaries.” Whatever the case may be, I’ve got you covered with today’s podcast episode!

The ever-lovely and kind Randi Buckley is joining me to talk alll about boundaries.  Randi is an internationally-recognized coach, author, and mentor, whose work helps women find their truth and be at peace with it. She is also the creator of Healthy Boundaries for Kind People.

When I first started out trying to set my own boundaries, it was god awfully messy. I cut people out, I turned on people, I was a bitch to people. I really didn’t get how to do this in a kind, yet effective, way.

Randi’s perspective offers a new, healthy and unique take on boundary-setting. Today, she explains how to set healthy boundaries that are kind both to ourselves and to others.
