On this week’s episode of In The Circle, we’re joined by Mariana, who brings us an impactful inquiry: How Can I Maintain Healthy Boundaries While Being of Service in Recovery?

We often read in spiritual scriptures that we are meant to give without expectation. Yet, as humans in relationships, we recognize that boundaries are essential, especially in recovery.

Spiritual and religious teachings often compare service to an express train for personal and spiritual growth. While giving and serving are fundamental aspects of recovery, it’s important to understand that setting healthy boundaries not only prevents burnout but also allows us to continue giving sustainably.

I often say that ‘service is where the action is’, but what does it truly mean to be of service? How can we differentiate between serving authentically and serving in a codependent way?

In this episode, we’ll dive deep into what it means to be of service and explore how to help others without giving too much of yourself away.

Tommy Discusses:

• Being of service in the present moment
• Giving from a place of wholeness and authenticity without losing yourself
• Creating healthy boundaries
• What it truly means to be of service
• Helping others while letting go of the outcome
