Let’s say you find yourself at an unexpected moment where things just feel out of alignment. Are you willing to speak up or walk away? This episode talks about why healthy boundaries are important and what it means to know your limits.

I believe everything happens for a reason and life sends us signs. This week I had various conversations with different circles of friends, yet one of the common themes was this idea of setting healthy boundaries. The conversations reminded me of a phrase my aunt and I have used for decades: “I can stay in a situation as long as I know I can go.”

I’m here to spend quality solo time with you for EP186’s Wise Walk as we discover our True Stride. It’s important to be aware of when we’re out of alignment and know ways to make plans and take action for what we want. This is to protect and honor our individuality and what does align with us.

On our Wise Walk, we discuss knowing your limits so you can set healthy boundaries for yourself. Your feelings are valued and you can honor them without encroaching on others. Come with me as we reflect on these Wise Walk questions:

• Where in your life do you feel out of alignment?

• Do you notice how being out of alignment makes you feel?

• Are you aware of how to create healthy boundaries?

• Have you ever needed to create a PLAN B to deal with an unaligned situation?

• Do you know your exit strategy for when things feel unaligned or someone crosses a line for you?

You deserve to feel safe. Your healthy boundaries deserve to be honored whether they are emotional, intellectual, physical, financial, or sexual.

It’s our responsibility to speak up and know our limits. Stay true to your healthy boundaries with these Wise Walk questions:

• Do you honor your well being?

• Do you know your limits?

• Do you make an effort to ensure a safe space for yourself?

• Do you give yourself permission to choose again?
