“Communicate directly, firmly, and lovingly. There’s a way to communicate in a very neutral, non-combative way….I think people appreciate honest communication.”
Boundaries are often misunderstood. At times, they might get confused with walls, avoidance, or selfishness. In this episode, Steele Bergman interviews minister Laura Mittler, and they explore what healthy boundaries actually are, why so many people struggle to set them, and how they can help us establish healthy relationships with others and stay vital ourselves. Steele and Laura also talk about the difference between loving people well and allowing them to push us too far, and how Biblical wisdom frames boundaries not as rejection, but as a way to protect what matters most.
