  Perhaps we need to repeat more often and move away from the idea that saying it once is enough.

• 00:11

  We're trying to change the relationship, and sometimes that change requires patience and practice.

• 00:22

  So this has been a year that has tested our boundaries on nearly every level.

• 00:28

  Work, friendship, family, community, geography, politics, religion, social issues, love, well being.

• 00:34

  It's kind of like we're being asked to draw lines all day, every day.

• 00:39

  Question is, how do you create and uphold boundaries that are clear and healthy and constructive, while also acknowledging the nuance and the kindness and understanding this moment demands?

  Well, my guest today, Nedrick Lever Tawab, can help.

  So at the end of every episode, I don't know if you've ever heard this, but we actually recommend a similar episode.

• 01:48

  So if you love this episode, at the end, we're going to share another one that we're pretty sure you're going to love too.

  So be sure to listen for that.

  I'm Jonathan Fields and this is good life project.

• 02:09

  So I want to take a deep dive into your work around relationships and boundaries, but also want to take a little bit of a step back.
