Synopsis

In a world of social media, working from home, and constant availability, setting boundaries in work, love, family, and beyond has never been more relevant. But discovering what you need and asserting those limits can be much easier said than done. Dr. Shainna Ali, mental health counsellor, educator, and best-selling author of The Self-Love Workbook offers her comprehensive guide to building better boundaries in the modern world. Focusing on individual boundary setting, Dr. Ali's approach highlights the key foundations of healthy relationships: patience, self-awareness, openness, courage, coping, and support. Her advice, paired with real-life stories and interactive prompts and journaling allow for deeper reflection and empathy as you customise the boundary-building process for your unique situation. Whether it's with your family, partner, friends, or even your pet, there are opportunities to create more meaningful, rewarding connections through the art of boundaries.
