Setting Boundaries: How to Stay Strong and Respect Yourself

In the wise words of Dr. Demetria McNeal, coping with life's challenges often requires a dash of self-reflection and a sprinkle of decision-making. 🧘‍♀️

It's not uncommon for feelings of guilt or discomfort to creep in when we set boundaries. This discomfort can be so overwhelming that we abandon our boundaries altogether, just to avoid the tension. 🌪️

But here's the thing: setting and maintaining boundaries is no walk in the park. It requires strength to weather the storm of tension. But remember, you can only control your actions, not others'.

You've set these boundaries for a reason, be it emotional, physical, or financial safety. 🛡️ You've made a decision to protect yourself, and that's something to respect and appreciate.

So, the next time you find yourself wavering on your boundaries, remember Dr. McNeal's words. Respect yourself enough to uphold the boundaries you've set. After all, they're there to keep you safe.
