So many of us were taught that boundaries are “mean.” That they create distance. That they make us hard to love.
�But the truth is—boundaries are what allow healthy, respectful connection to exist in the first place.

They clarify what’s okay and what’s not. They make room for mutual care. And most of all, they protect your peace when your nervous system says, “this doesn’t feel safe.”

If you’re learning how to set (and hold) boundaries for the first time, you’re not alone.�You’re not doing it wrong just because it feels hard.

Emotional reactivity is often a signal of an unmet emotional need or a perceived threat to psychological safety.
�What may appear as an "overreaction" is frequently a nervous system response rooted in past experiences of harm, invalidation, or vulnerability.

Identifying the underlying feeling can help regulate the response and create space for more intentional processing.
