So when we get fired, when we get broken up with, when all these things that we think are quote unquote bad happen, ask yourself, I wonder why this happened for me. Because when we sit around and say, why did this happen to me? I don't know. We're so stuck in victim. You can't see your way out of it. Instead of why did I wonder why this happened for me? You can even feel the energy of that.

It's like, wow, I feel empowered. It's not an invitation to judge anybody or especially yourself, but it's like, oh, I get it now. I get it. I needed to lose this mask. I needed a new job. I couldn't even see it at the time. That was a toxic environment. I needed to get out of there and I wasn't leaving. It happened for me. How perfect is that?

Yeah, well, you asked a couple different questions. So one thing is when you are starting to set boundaries and you're not quite sure how it's going to go over, I suggest putting what I call padding, and I write about this all in the book, in the adult chair book. It's like we pad the boundaries, okay?

So on either end of the boundary, I'm going to say, hey, Heather, I really love our friendship, and I love that we can share everything with each other, which is why I want to talk to you about what happened last Saturday, okay? I would love it if you would da-da-da-da-da. So thank you so much for listening to me. I love our relationship.

So it's like on the beginning and the end, it's like a sandwich sort of thing. You know, like in work when you're giving someone a review, it's like pro-con, pro-con. We want to sandwich it with some positives. So if you're in a partnership, you'd say, hey, I am learning a lot about you. You're vulnerable.

Would you like to join me in this process?
