The Boundary Castle: How to Set Effective Boundaries SPEAK: Disrupt

Dr. Carrie Johansson believes that we are making a huge mistake in thinking that boundaries are a method of control, demand or criticism. Effective boundaries reflect the intersection of our values and priorities and are a way of letting ourselves and others know what is most important to us, what we will and won’t do in the world. Using the metaphor of a castle to determine who gets close to you and who is kept at a distance, Dr. Carrie helps the audience identify what you say yes to and what you decline. After all, boundaries are supposed to be an invitation in to different levels of connection in your life, not a nasty shove out of it.
