Episode 28: Boundaries and Overfamiliarity
Episode 28 is all about boundaries and overfamiliarity. If 2020 and living in a digital age has taught us anything, people are often overstepping the mark. Is it all because they have crossed boundaries we haven’t asserted with them? Partly. But it is also due to the ‘open’ nature of social media and how accessible life has become. In this episode we’re discussing what boundaries mean to us offline and online, how to protect your peace and tools to maintain your boundaries.
