Boundaries: How to Lovingly Enforce Them With People Who Don’t Understand - Taylora Bookie LPC

Setting boundaries is hard. Setting them with people who don’t understand—or don’t care to—is even harder. In this powerful episode, licensed counselor Taylora Bookie of Quies Counseling joins us to unpack how to enforce boundaries with grace, clarity, and love. Together, we explore why boundaries often trigger guilt (especially for Christians), how to handle emotional pushback, and what it really means to protect your peace without losing your compassion. Whether you're healing from trauma, recovering from spiritual manipulation, or simply learning to say “no” without shame, this conversation offers practical tools rooted in both Scripture and wisdom from a licensed counselor.
