Description: As children, our need for connection can override our impulse to be true to our authentic selves. But in adulthood we can choose our relationships and the boundaries that govern them. With this freedom comes the responsibility to balance our needs for attachment and authenticity with the health and well-being of ourselves and others. We may want to be generous with our time and energy, but if we give too much we risk depleting ourselves and creating dependence in others. In this episode, listeners hear how podcast hosts Susan Beaulieu and Briana Matrious have experimented with setting and maintaining healthier boundaries in their lives, and how that intersects with their identities as indigenous women.  Survey: Please take our survey!
