In this latest episode, Barb and Tim dive deep into the often-misunderstood world of boundaries in relationships. From defining what a boundary really is to exploring why so many of us struggle to say “no,” they unpack how healthy boundaries protect your wellbeing, prevent burnout, and create respect and security in all your relationships.
Through real-life stories, practical examples, and reflections on emotional and physical limits, they show how boundaries aren’t about controlling others—they’re about self-respect, clarity, and maintaining your side of the street.
