Boundaries That Protect You and Your Practice

A bite-size micro-course for peer workers who care fiercely—without burning out.

The Problem

  • You’re “always on” for the people you serve.
  • Saying “no” feels like abandoning someone who’s been abandoned enough.
  • The line between healthy empathy and emotional spill-over gets blurry fast.

Our Promise

No gurus. No faces. Just high-definition, studio-grade videos and practical tools you can use this week to build sustainable, trauma-aware boundaries—without feeling cold or disconnected.

What You’ll Learn

  • Why boundaries feel so hard: understand the emotional traps unique to peer work and journal your own pressure points.
  • Setting boundaries without losing connection: boundary scripts, early warning signs of fatigue, and a printable cheat-sheet for tough conversations.
  • Maintaining boundaries in real life: create your personal Boundary Reset Plan with grounding tools and responses for pushback.
  • Bonus: Optional camera-off group debrief.
