I loved today’s topic about boundaries since they are mostly misunderstood. I liked the point discussed about how we must first learn how to treat ourselves the way we want to be treated and that in turn, people will follow. True change comes truly from within. Another point discussed was regarding expectations and what a truly powerful force it can be if we allow it to take control of our lives as we are all susceptible to it.

I like the part where you talk about the Latin origin of confidence and how it means intense trust with yourself and not others. I also liked how you then related it with the idea that even when confident, we are all vulnerable to expectations. Many people, me included, have found ourselves expecting people to understand our boundaries and emotions, so this article is a good reminder that old fashion communication is the best communication :)

Thank you for opening up about which ways old habits didn’t serve you and how you’re installing new habits that do, Maya! That’s the key to living authentically 🙏
