Ep 18 Boundaries part 4 - When the Rules Don't Apply

There are certain relationships in which the "Boundary Rules" don't apply. These relationships do not follow normal interactions. They are usually with narcissists - though this podcast does not attempt to diagnose, there are behaviors that are observable and we are able to make choices for our safety and empowerment. 

** This is an excerpt from the book "Boundary Boss" by Terri Cole - Terri has done such a great job synthesizing and making this information understandable.

In episodes 14 & 15 we talked about how exhausting bad boundaries are, and questions we can ask to understand our family of origin triggers and to see if we are living in our authenticity. We then had a bit of Boundary Making 101 as we talked about recognizing categories and types of boundaries, codependency, communication and your personal boundary blueprint. (The term boundary blueprint is from Terri Cole’s book Boundary Boss) Finishing up with a tool from Gabor Mate called Compassionate Inquiry.

We continued the discussion in Ep 17 on boundaries by looking within, noticing how you feel and what is going on for you as we begin getting ready to make healthy boundaries, concluding with Don Miguel Ruiz's Four Agreements.
