Welcome to this week’s Motherkind episode, where we chat with the incredible boundaries expert Melissa Urban. She is a 6x New York Times bestselling author and specialises in helping people establish healthy boundaries.

Listen to learn:

Why boundaries aren’t there to control anyone’s behaviour but to communicate our needs and our limits

The different levels of boundaries (Melisa illustrates this with a green, amber and red boundary) to help you assess what level to communicate

Why boundaries are NOT selfish or mean, but a tool to strengthen relationships


We also discuss how to set boundaries with extended family, which I know many of you struggle with. We get endless messages about this topic, so I hope you find this episodes as useful as I did.

PS. Throughout August I have a break from recording new episodes to reset, take a breath, and reconnect with the family. During this period, we re-release the most downloaded episodes from the past 6 months.
