Stop Waiting for Perfect Conditions
Have you ever found yourself saying, “I’ll do that when…”? Maybe it’s “I’ll enter a relationship when my finances are in order,” or “I’ll start exercising once I lose some weight.” We often wait for the perfect conditions before taking action, but this approach rarely works out.

Boundaries Rooted in Inner Congruence and Vision
The Pitfalls of Reactive Boundaries
Reactive boundaries, built like shields or fortresses, rely on a constant state of vigilance. They require you to be perpetually on guard, ready to defend against any perceived threat. This approach can lead to heightened stress and anxiety because your sense of security is dependent upon keeping external factors in check. It creates a scenario where your inner state is dictated by the actions and behaviors of others, leaving you in a reactive mode, alw…
