1 BIG IDEA
Boundaries are not rejection—they are leadership. Setting and holding clear boundaries protects your energy, builds trust, and models integrity. For purpose-driven women, boundaries are not about being mean or difficult; they are about leading with clarity, courage, and care.

3 WAYS TO APPLY THIS

  • Protect your energy: Identify one place where overextending is costing you and draw a line.
  • Model healthy leadership: Communicate boundaries clearly so your team feels safe to do the same.
  • Anchor in Core Values: Use your values as the blueprint for when and where to set limits.

3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

  1. Where in my leadership role am I currently stretched too thin?
  2. Which Core Value is being dishonored when I fail to hold a boundary?
  3. How can I communicate my boundary with clarity and care, rather than apology?
