Why Is Maintaining Boundaries So Hard?

Sale!

Maintaining boundaries sounds simple, but in practice, it’s often one of the hardest things to do.

Many individuals understand what boundaries are, yet still find themselves overcommitting, saying yes when they mean no, and feeling drained as a result. This live webinar explores why maintaining boundaries can be so difficult, through the lens of capacity, executive function, and the brain’s need to stay regulated.

You’ll gain a clearer understanding of what sits beneath boundary challenges—and how to approach them more effectively in both personal and professional contexts.

Why we developed the Why Is Maintaining Boundaries So Hard?
