Do you continue to take on any extra work even when you’re at your breaking point? When your workload exceeds your capacity, it can lead to anxiety, stress and even burnout. The American Psychological Association (APA) defines a boundary as “a psychological demarcation that protects the integrity of an individual.” Boundary setting isn’t just about saying “no”; it’s a vital self-care practice to

help safeguard your time, your energy and how fulfilled you feel at work. In this session, we’ll explore how to practice boundary setting at work. We will cover types of boundaries, how you know when they have been crossed, and we’ll work through tips and exercises to help empower you to build healthy work boundaries.This session will be hosted on Zoom by Christine Costa.
