“Grieving the end of a relationship, or accepting any imperfect solution, is a process that includes remembering why you made this decision, accepting your feelings, finding healthy outlets for your feelings, and treating yourself with kindness.”

“the most impactful thing we can do with our kids is to show up in a calm, regulated, non-rushed, non-blaming, non-outcome-focused way—both when they are performing difficult tasks and when they are witnessing us perform difficult tasks.”

“Why this boundary matters to you.
Example: This boundary matters because I need to keep my son safe.
You have the right to set boundaries.
Example: I have the right to decide who or what comes into my home.
When other people respond unfavorably, it doesn’t mean you’ve done something wrong.
Example: My father’s anger doesn’t mean I’ve done something wrong.
You’re not responsible for how other people feel about your boundaries or how they respond.
Example: My father’s feelings and actions aren’t my responsibility. It’s not my job to make him feel better.”

“We don’t always like other people’s boundaries; we don’t like being told no or having to compromise. But if we can’t respect other people’s boundaries, our relationships will suffer. We’ll be frequently frustrated and annoyed, we’ll have more arguments, and ultimately, people won’t want to be around us. When we respect other people’s boundaries, we accept their right to self-determination, to do what’s right for themselves. This builds trust and emotional safety because others are more likely to be open and honest with us if they experience us as respectful and nonjudgmental.”
