300-Myth #13: Creating Boundaries Now Will Help Me Protect Myself Later

BOUNDARIES BUILT ON FEAR FAIL- In this episode of the Christian Life Coach Collective, we tackle the common belief that setting up strict boundaries before you even begin coaching will protect you from burnout, harm, or difficult clients. While boundaries are essential, many new coaches set limits based on fear—not experience or calling.

You’ll learn how to discern between protective wisdom and projected fear, and how to build boundaries that serve your purpose, not shrink it.

3 Key Takeaways:

1. Fear-based boundaries can keep you from stepping into what God is calling you to do.
2. Real boundaries are built through experience, not assumptions.
3. Healthy boundaries should grow from your values and purpose—not from projected “what ifs.”

Listener Challenge:

Take inventory this week:
Where have you set boundaries based on fear or imagined scenarios?
Ask God to show you what needs to stay, what needs to shift, and what walls can come down so that you can lead and serve in freedom.
