Why do we find rest so hard to accept and what can we do about it?

This year, I have worked with several individuals and have had conversations with many people in my circle and networks around friendships. As we grow and we become more attuned to our values and beliefs, some friendships aren’t able to come with us. I’d argue that it is not a shift in priorities (of course it’s part of it), but it’s because our friendship values are misaligned. 

Is it possible to still be dutiful and have boundaries? Do we become "less good" if we have boundaries?

Boundaries are a Western concept, let’s start there. If you come from a global majority background there were no such thing as boundaries growing up. 

Maybe you only learnt the concept of a boundary in the last decade and you thought, “that doesn’t relate to me”…
