When you compare your efforts to others and you almost look and you can see They've got boundaries that I don't have because if I asked them to do what they're asking me, they would say no.

Why would they say no? Is it because they're a horrible person? Is it because of this or they're selfish? No, it's because of their boundary. The number one health and wellness podcast, Jay Shetty.
