Episode 13
Do Boundaries Really Make It Better?
Are you burnt out from sacrificing so much of your time and yourself to your business?
What I am learning about being able to pursue my purpose, shift my career to my calling, and stop the spiral that success can bring is that it all boils down to one thing: boundaries.
You need boundaries in place and you need to stick to them. I’m not perfect at this, but I’ve learned the hard way that it needs to be a priority. In this episode of the ENSPIRES podcast, I’m sharing my experience implementing boundaries and which boundaries have changed the game for me. I’m also sharing the hardest thing about boundaries because yes, it has been hard.
This is all about honoring what is most important to you. Without boundaries, work takes over and you don’t have time to think about your priorities. I’m pretty sure that’s not the life you dreamed of for yourself, so let’s make a change.

I might still be learning how to stand by my boundaries, but so far boundaries have made my life so much better. Is it hard to say no to jobs that I really want to take on? Yes. But getting my life back is so worth it.
