Session Details
In a fast-paced, always-on work culture, it can feel risky—or even selfish—to say “no,” ask for what we need, or protect our time and energy. However, setting boundaries is one of the highest forms of self-care. It’s not about building walls—it’s about creating clarity, safety, and trust for ourselves and those we work with.
This session takes a trauma-informed approach to boundary-setting at work. We recognize that past experiences can shape how comfortable—or uncomfortable—it feels to speak up, and that not everyone has had workplaces where boundaries were respected or welcomed. Through this lens, we explore practical ways to identify, communicate, and hold healthy boundaries without guilt or fear. We discuss how to advocate for our own needs while fostering connection, respect, and psychological safety in our teams–and beyond! Whether navigating burnout, people-pleasing, or unclear expectations, this session offers tools to help reclaim our well-being—because we shouldn’t have to sacrifice ourselves to be a valued colleague or leader.

What People Are Saying
❝
This training on boundaries was different from any other I've taken. Basing it in the nervous system made parts "click" for me that never have before. This is going to be helpful both at work and in my personal life.

This boundaries training left me with a lot to think about. I hadn't thought of microboundaries before and am now actively looking for ways to implement them in my life, and feeling the difference when I do.
