Mastering Boundaries: Insights from Laken & Kyle on True Self Inc.

For me, the way I conceptualize boundaries- and this has to do with something brene brown has talked about, which is: empathy without boundaries- is self-destruction, and so it's all about filling up your cup first, doing self-care, taking care of yourself and then going out and empathizing with the world.
Ever wondered why setting boundaries feels like walking a tightrope? In this episode of 'True Self Inc.', Laken and Kyle dive deep into the art of establishing and maintaining boundaries in both personal and professional settings. With over a decade of combined experience in recovery and personal growth, these two bring a wealth of knowledge and practical advice to the table.
Kyle opens up about his past struggles with respecting others' boundaries, while Laken shares her journey of learning to communicate her own effectively. They break down the concept of boundaries into 'hard' and 'soft' categories—think of hard boundaries as non-negotiable rules, like math equations, and soft boundaries as flexible guidelines that can adapt to different situations. One of the standout moments is their discussion on the role of empathy and self-care in boundary setting.
They emphasize that being aware of your emotions can help you create mental templates, whether they’re joyful or anger-filled, to guide your interactions. The episode is packed with actionable tips, from identifying areas that impact your self-esteem to setting realistic goals and surrounding yourself with supportive people. Laken and Kyle also highlight the importance of vulnerability—inviting people into your life while still maintaining your boundaries.
If you're looking to enhance your boundary-setting skills and improve your relationships, this episode offers a comprehensive guide that’s both insightful and relatable.
