“I Do What I Can for Other People First”
Sound familiar? For so many of us, prioritizing ourselves feels unnatural, even wrong. We were raised to serve others, to hear their point of view, and perhaps even to internalize their needs as a duty we’re responsible for fulfilling. It’s ingrained in us. And while generosity and care are beautiful qualities, they can also come at a cost—when we forget to care for ourselves.
When the idea of setting boundaries arises, it can feel uncomfortable, even overwhelming. You might think:
“Am I being rude? Selfish? Demanding?”
Or maybe you swing the other way, feeling like you have to be fiercely independent and cut everyone off just to get a little peace.
Here’s the thing: having boundaries isn’t about being rude or selfish, and it doesn’t have to mean isolation. But it does require clarity—clarity about how choices affect you, what you truly want, and how to bridge your needs with the needs of others.
What’s Standing Between You and Boundaries?
The fear of setting boundaries often comes with real risks:
You may lose relationships.
You may choose to leave one.
Someone may even leave you.
But what you gain is far greater. Imagine a life where:
You no longer feel compelled to self-soothe with things like late-night shopping, overeating, or overcommitting.
You move through life with a sense of clarity, no longer needing to make sweeping New Year’s resolutions to stop drinking, smoking, or overspending—because those habits have naturally fallen away.
This shift doesn’t come from restriction or force. It comes from getting clear on your “why.”
Why do you want boundaries? Why do you want to feel better?
Perhaps it’s because you love your free time. You love feeling good in your body. Or maybe you want the people around you to succeed on their own terms—not because you’ve overextended yourself to make it happen for them.
The Power of Clear Boundaries
When you create boundaries, everything changes. You:
Nourish yourself and care for yourself first.
Move from a place of steadiness and self-assurance.
Stop needing constant advice or validation from others.
Become your own healer.
You come to understand:
"This is me. This is them. And this is the space between us where we have choices."
Too often, we lean too far into that space—filling it with overgiving, overthinking, or overmanaging. But when you stand firm in yourself, you’ll find freedom, ease, and clarity.
