Think setting boundaries is just about laying down the law? Let’s flip that idea on its head.

In this episode, I'm diving into something truly eye-opening—the reciprocal nature of boundaries. This isn’t your typical chat about rules and limits. It’s about understanding that when you teach your child or teen to respect others’ boundaries, you empower them to expect and receive the same respect in return.

In this powerful episode, I unpack how recognizing and respecting boundaries can dramatically improve your child or teen’s self-esteem, confidence, and their ability to forge strong, positive relationships.

Here’s what I've got lined up:

• [5:50] What Are Boundaries: We’re going beyond the basics here.
• [8:54] The 5 Types of Boundaries: Some of these might really surprise you!
• [17:06] The Big Payoff: How respecting boundaries reshapes self-respect and why it’s a game-changer for your child’s development.
• [20:00] Where Parents Miss the Mark: It’s easy to do—we’ll tackle how to avoid common pitfalls.
• [24:28] Tips and Tactics: Straight-up strategies to effectively teach and uphold boundaries that work both ways.
