“Love and Work are the cornerstones of our humanness.” – Sigmund Freud
As professionals, we aspire to fulfill standards of service that can lead us to ignore our own, or others’, human limitations. An unhealthy “need to be needed” or a “need not to be needed” can jeopardize physical, emotional and relational health. It is critical to recognize the stress symptoms of inadequate boundaries, and how to set healthy limits in order to thrive sustainably in both Love and Work.
