Ep. 102: Terri Cole - Let’s Talk About Your Boundaries

Dear Life with Christina Rasmussen

I’m looking forward to hearing what you think of this week’s conversation with my guest Terri Cole. Terri is a licensed psychotherapist, relationship and empowerment expert, and author. She also happens to be a dear friend of mine. Her new book, Boundary Boss is available as of today and in this conversation, she walks me through the steps using a real-life example of an issue I was facing. The connections she was able to help me make and the clarity I found in this short conversation was remarkable!

Terri talks about boundaries in a way that I haven’t seen before. As someone that thought I had strong boundaries, through this book, she defines them in ways that I wasn’t expecting and opened my mind to areas and experiences in my life that are boundary issues I hadn’t seen before.

If you’re familiar with my work and what I call Invisible Losses, you will appreciate the connections that Terri makes to how those losses and past experiences show up in our present relationships and interactions.

“The truth about boundaries is that they are not the blocks to the epic relationships we want. They are, in fact, the bridge.” ~ Terri Cole

This episode is full of real-life examples and steps from Terri’s book that I’m certain will get you thinking about this in a different way, and hopefully also feel that it’s possible to make shifts in your own life. She highlights that when certain triggers or problems we face feel really big, it’s a good indication that it’s connected to a past experience that is showing up again. She reminds us, and in her book teaches us, how to shift out of the child experience and into our adult self.

Terri is truly extraordinary in the way she explains and teaches these concepts. If you’d like to hear more of her personal story and how she went from running a top modeling agency to where she is now, be sure to listen to her first appearance on The Dear Life Podcast right here.

I can’t wait to dive into the exercises in the book and explore these newly defined boundaries. I hope you will join me! I hope that you’ll listen and let me know what you think of this conversation.
