This week Jess and Amber tackle one of the trickiest parts of the healing journey -- Setting Boundaries. What exactly are boundaries and how do they make or break our relationship dynamics. Do you struggle with porous or rigid boundaries? The road to healthy boundaries is anything but straight, give yourself grace and space as you navigate uncharted territories. Setting boundaries is the highest form of self-love and once you learn how to stand in your power with boundaries you gain the freedom to reclaim your life. This is your life, no one else's. Set those boundaries and watch your life change in the best way possible. You're Safe. We Believe You.
