How to Hold Space With Boundaries (EP117)

FitMama

Hey FitMama, I’m back this week with a solo episode all about how to hold space, not only for others, but for yourself as well.

Often we are at maximum capacity in our time, energy and money available to give to others and yet we expect ourselves to be there for everyone and we end up giving from an empty cup.

This can be so easy to do and I feel like it’s easier now than ever.

Life doesn’t seem to let up and if we let it, home, work, kids, family, bills, friends, kid commitments and other duties can take over our lives, leaving us depleted and our mental and physical health can suffer as a result. Unless we have boundaries in place, we reduce our capacity to be able to hold space for others, and unless we plan for it, most often we help others before ourselves, leading to a lack of time, energy or money for self-care and holding space for our own need, wants and desires..

Let’s change this and give to ourselves by setting boundaries that truly honor our needs.

I give you my five top tools to make this an effortless process and then it will feel good to stick to these boundaries.

Hint: We can do it, but need to let go of our cultural and societal pressures to be everything to everyone and let go of the guilt and shame that comes with not being able to live up to that. Because it’s not reality! You can’t and don’t need to do it all FitMama, it just feels like you do sometimes.

Listen in now and reframe how you approach it and know that boundaries are the most beautiful thing you can give to yourself and others. Teach people how to treat you and how to support you, they want to learn.
