About this episode
Sydney and Kelly discuss the concept of energetic boundaries and how to protect and direct personal energy.
In this episode, Sydney and Kelly are getting at something subtle but really practical: the idea that your energy —your attention, emotional availability, and mental space—is a limited resource, and boundaries are how you protect and direct it. They frame “energetic boundaries” as more than just saying no to things. It’s about being aware of what you’re letting influence you and what you’re unconsciously absorbing from others. What is an energetic boundary Its not just the energy we receive it is also what we give out What is the point of realizing energetic boundaries A boundary is not a shield and are not like a brick wall It is to know what is mine and what is yours Sending someones energy back to them Streams of grace Signs you might need stronger boundaries Energy vampires never fill your cup Boundaries are about you Website: anincompleteguide.com Instagram: @anincompleteguide YouTube: @AnIncompleteGuide Patreon: patreon.com/AnIncompleteGuidetoPersonalGrowth Shout out to Lauren, Jake, Nicole, Cassie, and Cassidy our Patreon supporters!
