Love Your Boundaries

Today it’s time for a monthly chat with Recapture Self Community Manager – Jen Doolittle. Each month we’ll dive deep and chat about ONE topic relating to our journey as Creatives, People, and Parents. 

This month our topic is Boundaries.

In this episode we chat about:

  • Our thoughts on Glennon Doyle Melton’s recent bestselling book, Love Warrior
  • How setting boundaries encompasses so much more than simply saying NO
  • The importance of vulnerability in making meaningful connections with others especially when it comes to talking about the ‘hard moments’ in parenting
  • When our vulnerability is TOO MUCH vulnerability and how to strike a balance between holding your emotions in and letting them out.
  • We also coin a new term for what we both do when it comes to dealing with pent up emotions: Creative Sanity — stick around till the end of the episode to find out more about what that means.
