S2, Ep 3 Our Boundaries & Our Time

Elevate with Grace

This week we are diving head first into the area of healthy boundaries and time management a perfect follow up from our episodes on courageous conversations.
Leveling up on our ability to have brave conversations provides the perfect framework to now focus on cultivating new healthy boundaries and ensuring you start owning your time as the most precious resource you have.
There is a very good chance that even if you had good boundaries pre 2020 these have blurred so we are sure this is the perfect time to be sharing these curated insights.
Our action challenge this week: Write down 3 areas of your life that feel out of control and would benefit from a refocus. Jot down some thoughts around how to overcome. Then start for a whole week to mindfully track your time and get ready for our next episode.
