Boundaries Keep Us Safe

There is an old Swahili saying that says, “If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go with others.”

Boundaries provide a safety net, but they are so much more. Today we are going to discuss how to set boundaries and why. When speaking of boundaries, the first thing that comes to mind might be relationships. May be its work. Or is it a combination of both, an office romance?

We talk all about the value of setting boundaries that will help you focus and keep you safe at the same time.

Many think of boundaries as being restrictive, but if applied right, they can be liberating.
