Professional boundaries aren’t optional - they’re essential.

Clear boundaries protect workers, support clients, and strengthen organisational culture.

From hybrid work confusion to blurred care-client interactions, maintaining healthy limits at work has never been more important.

👉 Check out this deep-dive Reddit post breaking down what professional boundaries training is, when workplaces need it, and how it helps create safer, more effective environments*.

💡 Let’s talk about fixing the invisible line that matters most.

It’s Not the Outcome, It’s the Process

Hi [Name],

The issue is not with the fact that you are getting things done without waiting for authorities to knock at the door. In fact, we do need to clean up things and put files up to date.

If you read [Name 1]’s email, you will see that the issue is with how it was done. I.e., here, we used their name in minutes and did not keep them informed.

The way to do this is (and this applies where [Name 1] is a member):

When something is being approved by the Board, it needs to be sent to the complete Board (i.e., all members of the Board). This is something that was communicated to the team before.

If we are using their name in minutes, keep them informed. This is as per their email below.

They specifically want to be given heads-up when something is coming their way. This is also as per their email below.

And for [Name 2], we always send to [Name 3]. [Name 3] responsible to make sure [Name 2] knows about where their signature is being used.

Since we are now aware of how [Name 1] wants things to be done, let us now lead by example.

Should we refuse to deal with less-than-desirable people?

It is an in-built human instinct within all of us to move away from painful experiences and seek pleasant ones, as it is necessary for our self-protection and growth.

The wisdom passed down through generations is that we should not associate or socialise with undesirable people in society, as they have the potential of pulling us down. We should be ruthless in saying no to spending time with such people, and as the saying goes – it is better to have an intelligent enemy than a foolish friend.

Sorry, folks. It's Christmas! I'm putting all professional obligations on pause, unless we previously scheduled an appointment. That means no interviews, no quick replies, no new social media management clients, no Zoom meetings. Nothin'! [Unless we previously made an appointment.] I'm out to value this precious time with my loved ones.🎄 If you need me, I can be reached at [email protected], but again, replies will not be swift. #ProfessionalBoundaries #Christmas #GodBlessYou #ChristmasTime #Time #Boundaries #HowToSayNo #HelenMPugsley #author #SocialMediaManager #No #socialmediamarketing #socialmediaqueen #socialmediamanagement #Break #ChristmasBreak (at Laramie, Wyoming) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmanaHiM8Gi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I really struggle with boundaries. I struggle with making them and keeping them. I struggle with all things boundaries. The other thing I struggle with is small talk, and a part that comes with that, over-sharing. One of my client’s guardians likes to talk to me on a “friend” level. We are not friends. I am paid to care for her brother. I often talk to her on the phone to answer questions about her brother, and discuss things in the program, but our conversations can go on much further than that. She often keeps me on the phone for 1-2 hours, and she talks nonstop. And she barely talks about her brother. What she does talk about is a lot of stuff that makes me uncomfortable. She makes it almost IMPOSSIBLE to have any kind of professional boundaries. She tells me crazy personal information, she makes racist remarks, she’s xenophobic, she’s a Trump supporter, she’s even fatphobic...and she’s overweight! It goes on and on. She swears, but is like, REALLY OBSCENE. Makes crazily obscene jokes. And I don’t know how to handle any of this properly. I have gotten in trouble so many times with my company for “oversharing” with her, being unprofessional, giving her too much information, etc, but every time I’ve asked for help or coaching, they don’t give me any and tell me I can switch to another program if it’s too much...Today, her brother is away for the weekend...and she called the program to talk to me four times and when I didn’t answer the phone, she texted my cellphone twice. I refuse to talk to her today because her brother isn’t here, and I usually use today (my Monday) to transition back to work. If we were going to discuss her bro’s care, it would be one thing, but she’s SPECIFICALLY calling to shoot the shit. This gives me sooo much anxiety since I keep getting in trouble, plus she makes me so uncomfortable. Tonight, at 8:57, as I’m putting my second client to bed, the phone rings AGAIN. I maaaaay have ripped the phone cords out of the wall and left them out until it was time to leave...for her to text my cell...#boundaries #healthyboundaries #professionalboundaries #autistic #iamautistic #actuallyautistic #ihatesmalltalk #auditoryprocessingdisorder https://www.instagram.com/p/CHB6SUsB8Kt/?igshid=1x27udacuycuq
