Let’s talk boundaries, shall we?
If you’re anything like me, then you are the type of person who is there for everyone. You’re the backbone, the support system, the confidant, the go-to person for those you care about. It’s a role that you play with great honor. It is also a role that can exhaust you if you don’t take […]
