Tips for Healthy Boundaries
Boundaries should be based on your values, or the things that are important to you. For example, if you value spending time with family, set firm boundaries about working late.

This will make it less likely you’ll do something you’re not comfortable with. Use this resource to learn more about setting healthy boundaries.
