435. How to Avoid Gossip + Set Nonverbal Boundaries with Nedra Tawwab

In this episode, Nedra Tawwab lays the groundwork for implementing and integrating boundaries for yourself and your community. 

K + L get to the root of self-abandoning habits – often programmed into us in childhood through normalized parental behaviors – which can be detrimental to our ability to listen to our internal knowing. Plus, Nedra advises on how to self-advocate for what feels safe and right for you and dives into the ways we communicate with each other from face to face, to social media, to behind each other’s backs.
