How Do I Set Healthy Boundaries With My Partner?

In this community series episode, we address a question from a listener who is looking to set boundaries with their partner after recently moving in together. A few notable take-aways are the following:

• Take accountability for your own growth so you know your needs and dislikes and can communicate these to your partner before resentment forms.
• Create an intentional space to have the hard conversations early on with your partner to cultivate a safe and comfortable environment to coexist in.
• Avoid relying on your partner to make you happy; instead, take accountability for cultivating your own happiness, in doing so you can show up for your partners out of love and not out of need.
• Maintain alone time to preserve your sense of independence and separateness.

Ultimately, we end on the reflection that relationships can be an incredible opportunity to learn about ourselves, especially when we have the difficult conversations and work through our insecurities in the process of voicing our needs.
