Setting Boundaries as a "Helper" or Life Coach (Trent Shelton Totally Nailed It)

Trent Shelton Totally Nailed Setting Boundaries as a "Helper" or Life Coach
Whether you're a "helper", recovering people pleaser, or life coach, Trent Sheldon offers words of wisdom from personal experience about how to show up to support people with boundaries that are healthy for you and for them.
"I have a very kind heart and I really care for people. I will help you with any problem as best as I can. But there's 2 things: first you have to at least try to take the advice that I'm giving because otherwise you're wasting my time. Why are you asking me? Are you just wanting me to coddle you or to make you feel good about a situation? And then number 2 is your problem can't become my problem... I'm not the band-aid person, I'm the surgery person... I refuse to let somebody's stress become my stress and now their problem become my problem and now I'm a problem to my kids, I'm a problem to my team, and I'm irritated all because of a situation that has nothing to do with my life."
