The purpose of todays podcast episode is to build your castle walls, your boundaries that shield you from the world. That protect you from others energy and desires. That provide you with a place to reflect, learn and grow. To nurture your inner wisdom & creativity, and to always have a place to call home. Building and ENFORCING boundaries is not something that is taught or thought highly of in our society. The line between manipulation and influence is razor sharp and for many they simply do not have the strength to speak, act and live in their own best interest. I feel todays episode is a step towards personal sovereignty & a way forward.

Today, I want to start by reading the Poem that inspired the episode called “Castle Walls 🏰…

Inside my Castle lies my soul 💫.

My spirit, my life.

My true home.

The walls that surround me are thick and strong.

The moat a river, the tower tall.

I protect myself because no-one will.

My power within me, a phoenix lying still 🔥.

In a world such as ours, boundaries are needed.

There is nothing more beautiful than life unimpeded.

Keep danger out and if it comes too close…

Call to arms, and use love as the arrows 🏹.

A gentle touch.

A graceful light.

My boundaries are strong and will last the night.

I will not venture out from my castle looking for war.

I already have what I am looking for ✨.

Some reflection questions to think about are...

1. Who am I and WHAT do I stand for?! -->Build your castle walls (boundaries) around this thesis!!!
2. What are my boundaries and do I enforce them?! Why / Why not?!
3. What would I gain within myself by practicing enforcing my personal and professional boundaries?!

In the episode I give a visual example of 4 walls and within them a circle. Your circle is your treasure, your thesis, WHO you are and WHAT you stand for. The 4 walls are boundaries that shield and protect you, but also challenge you to enforce WHO you are. Feel free to draw your own and rise the Phoneix that you are 🔥!!!
