One of the bigger buzzwords around pop psychology today is boundaries. But what do healthy boundaries mean and look like, and what do they have to do with mental health? Kels and Wes dive deep into this topic to understand the importance and purpose of boundaries, the relationship between boundaries and needs, and how it all can affect our health within all our different contexts and pieces of ourselves. We also talk about setting boundaries with ourselves, setting boundaries with others, and how both stem from an understanding of your worth and your value and significantly shape the kind of life you live.

We had so much to say about rest, we had to split it into two episodes! So join us for some "bonus" content, (ironically during our rest week) where we continue our conversation on the importance of rest. In part 2, we discuss some of the common misunderstandings about resting and some of the perspective shifts that can help overcome them, and also practical ways you can implement rest in your life, even in the midst of a culture that values busyness and grind.
