You’re Not Difficult for Wanting Boundaries — with Britney Marie Harris

Audre Lorde reminds us:

Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation—and that is an act of political warfare.

This is the heartbeat of the 2025 Restful Teacher® Challenge.

In Episode 2, Dr. Michelle Chanda Singh sits down with therapist Britney Marie Harris to name what so many of us have been taught to fear: that setting boundaries makes us difficult. Britney flips the script with clarity, compassion, and courage—reminding us that boundaries aren’t isolation, they’re integrity.

Highlights:

• Signs you’re saying yes when your body says no
• The difference between boundaries and emotional walls 
• What your “yes” is costing you 
• How to honor capacity instead of chasing perfection
