In this episode of the Filled to Flourish podcast we examine the topic of boundaries with more detail and nuance than a lot of boundaries conversations. We explore this topic a lot with each other and clients, and wanted to bring some of that more complicated conversation to the podcast. We discuss:-Boundary basics-Power, autonomy and systems-When defensiveness is normal, when it's harmful-Why those closest to us might have such a hard time with our boundaries-Family systems and roles-Shared and unshared boundaries-How powerfully healing it can be when someone responds well to our boundaries-What people's reaction to your boundaries can tell you about your relationship
