WISE: Small Changes That Hold

Boundaries That Protect What Matters : Setting Limits That Protect Values Without Trying to Control Other People

A boundary is not a demand that another person change. It is a clear statement about your participation, availability, responsibility, or access—and the value that limit is meant to protect. Through the Boundary-to-Value Link, William R. Stanek helps you move beyond vague resentment and rigid withdrawal. You will learn to name what matters, set a proportionate limit, communicate it clearly, and follow through without trying to control another person's choices. Strong boundaries become an expression of care, not punishment.
