"Setting and maintaining boundaries is essential for preserving energy and well-being, enhancing self-worth and self-respect, and improving relationships." ~Tami Imlay
Happy podcast day! I'm so excited to be here with you today. I'm doing something a little different. I'm going to air a conversation, a training session I did with my Divine Destiny: Living a Purpose Aligned Life Facebook community. One theme we've been discussing this past week is showing up for yourself.
We've delved into creating healthy boundaries, understanding their purpose, and why we need them. To show up for others, we first need to show up for ourselves. This isn't selfish; it's essential. We've discussed core values and how showing up for ourselves allows us to pour from a full cup instead of an empty one. So, listen in!
Today, we are getting a sneak peek into day 4 of our Show Up For Yourself theme.
We're going to talk about boundaries, maintaining them, and what it has to do with showing up for yourself. This week's group theme has been showing up for ourselves and living a purpose-aligned life. We want to make an impact, feel fulfilled, and not waste time and energy on things that don't matter.
When we show up for ourselves, we can then show up for our people—our community, churches, PTA, neighbors, friends, and family. But it all starts with showing up for ourselves. Pouring out for everyone but ourselves makes us feel misaligned, overwhelmed, scattered and stuck.
We've talked about core values, pivoting, and maintaining our word to ourselves. Today, we're focusing on boundaries—why maintaining healthy ones is showing up for yourself, how it's the opposite of being selfish, and how to discover areas in your life that need boundaries.
Boundaries don't last forever; they shift as seasons do. Today, let's dive in and talk about why maintaining healthy boundaries is showing up for yourself. Here are three reasons why:
1. Preservation of Energy and Well-being
If we try to be everything to everyone, we're actually nothing to no one. We're exhausted and don't have the energy to do what really matters. Understanding our core values makes it easier to set boundaries, freeing us to have the life we want. Healthy boundaries protect your time, resources, gifts, and emotional well-being, helping you live your purpose.
2. Enhanced Self-worth and Self-respect
When we respect ourselves, we're able to show up for ourselves. We see the value we bring, and when we're at our best, we can bring our best. Self-respect makes it easy to say no to things that don't align with our values. For example, I once had to decline airing a podcast interview because the guest's values didn't align with mine. This self-respect and confidence help protect the values that my brand holds.
3. Improved Relationships
Setting boundaries actually improves relationships by creating clear expectations and mutual agreements, leading to healthier, deeper connections. People know what you stand for, can trust you, and value the relationships more.
