Dr. Brooke Weinstein
About this episode

EP:103 In this week’s Thrive Like a Parent podcast, I share my personal journey with setting boundaries and the importance of prioritizing your needs.

I describe a time when I had zero boundaries, leading to anxiety, insecurity, and relying on unhealthy coping mechanisms.

But through self-reflection, I’ve learned to establish healthy boundaries and strategies to manage my daily life as a parent and caretaker.

I also share about being honest and speaking up, even when it’s uncomfortable. I’ve found that being more authentic has allowed me to feel more comfortable in my own skin.

I also discuss the importance of setting boundaries with children, and not being afraid to have difficult conversations. The goal is to help kids develop self-regulation and independence.

Check out this inspiring episode on the transformative power of boundaries!

XOXO,
Dr. B
