Protect Your Peace

How to Set Boundaries in a World without Any

Narrated by: Angela Juarez

Are you tired of feeling drained and frustrated with life?

Do you resent your friends and loved ones for demanding so much from you and never catering to your needs in return?

And how about always saying yes when you really want to say no?

The problem you have isn’t external—it’s internal. You feel this way because you have an unhealthy desire to be liked, and it’s caused you to not set boundaries in your life. You make yourself available to everyone because you fear rejection, but at the same time you begrudge the people you give yourself so freely to. This contradiction is one that many people struggle with. But the good news is that you can change it. In Protect Your Peace: How to Set Boundaries in a World Without Any, you’ll learn all about setting and maintaining boundaries with friends, loved ones, and co-workers, as well as the following:

• How to enforce your boundaries without getting talked out of them
• Steps to set boundaries with your young children
• Tools to teach people how to treat you
• Strategies to find your tribe and make new friends
• Tips on how to handle losing people because of your boundaries
• Insight into the type of people who violate boundaries
• How to establish boundaries in your relationship

A lack of boundaries creates tension, stress, and anxiety—while healthy boundaries lead to less resentment and a feeling of safety and peace. One of the greatest misconceptions about boundaries is that they’re mean, cold, selfish, and create distance amongst people. But boundaries are more beneficial than we think. Would you live in a house with no door where random people could just walk in and out at will? We have doors on our houses to keep us safe and to enable us to decide who to let in and who to keep out. Boundaries are no different: They keep us safe, and we get to decide who to let in and who to keep out.
