In this episode of Closet Chronicles, host Duan Stewart explores the intricate dynamics of boundaries and family relationships. Dawn reflects on her personal journey of understanding boundaries, particularly within familial contexts. She discusses the common misconception that family members can cross boundaries simply due to their relationship with you, and how this belief can be harmful.

Dawn shares her own experience of seeing family members as flawed individuals rather than perfect guardians, which led her to redefine what family means to her. She emphasizes the importance of having boundaries respected by anyone, regardless of their relation to you. True family, in her view, consists of those who genuinely understand, respect, and support you.

The episode also touches on the process of self-exploration, setting personal boundaries, and discovering supportive relationships. Dawn concludes by encouraging listeners to reflect on their own boundaries and relationships, and to seek out connections that honor their true selves.
