I have found boundaries for myself to be really helpful, and sometimes that requires reframing and brutal honesty. It took me a long time to get here.

Boundary for ME is “I am only going to tidy this up once a week and I am doing it for me, not for you, with no hidden expectation that you will learn from my highfalutin example”
