I'll be honest: at one point in my life, I didn't even know what boundaries were. Seriously! I was smack in the middle of my co-dependent, abusive first marriage. We were getting "counseling"
from the pastor of our church (Mistake #694 - Pastors are pastors, not marriage counselors.) It was a disaster. My then-husband was pretending. Blaming. Pinning it all on me. I was making excuses. Letting him get away with it. Failing to stand up for myself when I was told that it was all my fault. And to make matters worse, the church leadership defended him and enabled the abuse. I didn't have a voice to stand up for myself, even though I was dying
inside.
Mostly, I put on the Perfect mask and pretended everything was fine. I confided in two close friends, who supported me. One day, my friend Yvette commented, "It sounds like you need to set some boundaries."
I literally looked at her and asked, "What are boundaries?" I kid you not. I'd never heard the term before that moment.
It was a light bulb moment for
me.
All my life, I was raised to put others' needs ahead of my own. No, I take that back. I was taught to meet others' needs instead of my own. When you do that, you don't have boundaries.
This week's blog post is about setting healthy boundaries, and how sometimes, you've just gotta ignore what your Momma told you.

Why Setting Boundaries is Hard for Women
|
Setting boundaries is essential for your self-worth, your happiness, and your physical and emotional safety. But, all too often, women find it hard to set boundaries. Excessive feelings of guilt and selfishness cause us to deny what's best (or safe) for us in order to serve others.
My week
suddenly turned upside down, giving me a chance to practice setting boundaries. My friend's sister passed away suddenly, and my husband and I watched her 2 little girls for five days while she went to the funeral in another state. So we had 4 kids under 10 running around the house, 3 girls and one boy! Holy tamole, it was crazy! Fun, but crazy.
We had about 6 hours' notice before we picked up the girls. For a moment, I panicked about not having enough time to finish
everything that "needed" to be done, like clean the house. Because here's the thing: I have a lot of strengths. But keeping my house clean is not one of them :) I admit it. Between running my business, helping out with my hubby's biz, homeschooling, violin classes for my daughter, volunteer work with my church and about a thousand other things that all moms take care of on a daily basis, I simply can't do it all. Picking up my house daily (ok, even weekly) is one of those things I'm
willing to let slide. Besides, it's job security for our house cleaner ;) (Oh wait, that only works if we actually hire one...)
