Being kind doesn’t make you a pushover...being kind without boundaries does. 😐 In this episode, I talk about the difference between having a good heart and abandoning yourself to keep everyone else comfortable.

I also break down 5 practical ways to be kind without being a pushover:
1. Being kind without needing to sacrifice your boundaries
2. Give because you want to, not because you feel obligated to
3. Be soft in tone but firm in substance
4. Be interested without becoming responsible
5. Match effort instead of constantly compensating for other people
