Setting Boundaries

Dr. Pooja Lakshmin discusses the importance of setting boundaries with family and friends who don't respect them. She emphasizes the need to communicate one's requests while also acknowledging the challenging emotions that may arise. Dr. Lakshmin advises seeking support from a therapist or a third party, as family members may not provide the desired understanding. Trusting that the relationship can withstand tension and being willing to let go of relationships that can't is also explored.
