Holding a boundary isn’t about getting someone else to agree with it.
It’s about clearly knowing what you will and won’t allow—and following through with your response when it’s crossed.
💬 “I understand you don’t like this boundary. I’m still holding it.”
So what does that look like in practice?
➡️ Calmly restating the boundary, without overexplaining
➡️ Limiting engagement when the boundary is violated
➡️ Choosing aligned actions, not emotional reactions
➡️ Accepting that others may not like or respect your limit—and holding it anyway
You don’t need permission to protect your peace.
You just need practice—and support.
