When we fail to set boundaries and hold people accountable we feel used and mistreated right?

Well there is no time like the present to set your affairs in order boundaries-wise.

In this episode we discuss the the types of boundaries with examples and the WH questions(What is a boundary, Why set boundaries, How and When to set boundaries) because in the words of Lysa TerKeurst ‘’Boundaries are simply: Clearly stated parameters that provide a safe structure for communication and healthy relationships’’

All the best as you set boundaries and communicate them.

Nobody escapes trauma while growing up - Yes or No? Thing is we are a product of the people and environment that we live in.

Trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event(s) and it mostly comes back as a reaction not a memory.

In this episode J&J discuss: 1. What is Childhood trauma 2. How to identify your Childhood trauma 3. Tips to overcome Childhood trauma

As an adult there is no excuse for misbehaving/bad manners/unhealthy characteristics because you are now the Background!

The goal is to stop the cycle, you end up unconsciously replaying/reacting to that trauma through our choices of friends, careers, relationships etc. then pass it down to the next generation.

At it’s core Dilemmas basically reveal who you i.e one’s Character, Values, Principles, Moral, Ethics or lack thereof.
