Relational Boundaries

  • North Oakland, California (map)

Where needs and desire meet limits and capacity: what it means to share space and how to do it well.

Boundaries are the infrastructure of intimacy - not only what we say no to, but what we say yes to, and how we know the difference. They are an imperfect science, best practiced with presence and a nuanced understanding of how capacity and desire can shift over time and in different contexts.

Skills to navigate, negotiate, and collaborate shared space make for robust relational climates. As Prentis Hemphill wrote, “Boundaries are the distance at which I can love you and me simultaneously.

In this session, we’ll explore boundaries not as rules or ultimatums, but as dynamic practices of discernment and mutual care.

You’ll leave with:

  • A deeper understanding of your own boundaries

  • Tools for identifying and communicating needs, desires, limits, and capacity

  • Language for expressing your boundaries, and the ability to identify when a boundary is well received and when it isn’t
