E58: Why Boundaries Are Important In Recovery

E58: Why Boundaries Are Important In Recovery

2023-10-15

You hear the word "boundaries" get thrown around a lot in recovery circles, but what does it actually mean? And more importantly - why do you need to understand it? We're going to dig into boundaries today, and our guests will share some examples of boundaries they've had to set in their own lives, as well as why it's been important for their recovery journeys. Meet Richard, who works with youth and their families; Nicole, a sober influencer we met on Instagram; and Sean, author of Going Dry; and listen as we chat about everything we've learned about how boundaries affect our lives and relationships now that we're sober.

"When you start setting boundaries, you get closer to peace."

In this episode:

  • You are the only one in control of your boundaries
  • Defining and setting our boundaries for ourselves first
  • Having a willingness to be honest with yourself
  • Taking ownership of what you can control and are responsible for
  • Growing up without boundaries sets the stage for our adult lives
  • How to communicate boundaries
  • Setting boundaries with people who don't understand them
  • Dealing with the pain of enforcing boundaries
  • Practicing with boundaries by starting small
  • Accepting boundaries with others with wisdom and grace
  • Sharing the skills we learn in recovery with others in our lives

"If someone works up the courage to set a boundary with you, they really care about you."
