I had him join me on the mic this week to answer this specific question. Thank you to our Partners who help support our podcast production! You can partner with us, too. Help Meet Article Mentioned:

info_outlineHave you ever said yes to a commitment and everything in you was screaming, “No!” Well, what you experienced was a first hand experience of crossing boundaries.
On this week’s episode on Wholistic Hearts Podcast, Joshua and Kristin talk about the very important healthy aspect of boundaries within marriage, parenting, work, faith....and much more.
Key Topics:
1. Boundaries are a good thing!
2. When we say yes to something, we are also saying no to something else.
3. Boundaries aren’t selfish. (I.e. Don’t ask a young overwhelmed mother to come volunteer in the nursery)
3. Setting boundaries is about speaking up for yourself.

Go Suck a Lemon by Michael Cornwall
