Ask Amy – Dr. Amy Johnson’s Youtube podcast. This episode is short and beautifully describes how we can begin to step away from old ideas about “boundaries.” This is one of my favorite topics and comes up a lot with clients. If “boundaries” are a hot topic with you, please feel free to email me. I’d love to offer you an easier perspective about “boundaries!” In the meantime, enjoy Amy’s episode here:
