• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Thank you for inviting me.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Wanda, oh, you are welcome.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: You are welcome.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: So we're going to dive into some questions and we're going to talk about boundaries, but did you have something else to add that I have not said in your bio?
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: Actually, yeah, this is my second book.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Actually, my first book I published two years ago and it was called I had a Twin Disrupting the cycle of childhood traumas, and this book was inspired by my twin sister, who took her life three years ago as a result of the childhood trauma that she and I both experienced at least 90 percent we both experience.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: It just goes to show how people what's the word I'm looking for?
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: People react differently to the traumas, even if it's the same traumas, and it's so important that we identify what we're doing now to heal from those traumas so that we don't cause collateral damage with the residual effects.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: And that's what that book is about helping people to understand how to identify those traumas so they can heal and not pass that on to different generations.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: I think we're in the same space here because we came out with our books around the same time.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: We did God's Grace Through the Fire from Struggle to Triumph, and how I went through, like you, trauma and abuse, and actually you brought out triangulation.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I'm bringing out forgiveness, forgiveness.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely, which is so important.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: I love that people think I have to forgive them.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I don't want to forgive them and you're going to be talking about it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Forgiveness is not about that person, it's about you, because that's part of your healing process exactly.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: You got to forgive yourself first.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so my book is coming out too, pam.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: It seems like we're on the same wavelength, girl, because you have your book, I have my book.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: We write verses.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: We're just trying to educate people to not be stuck in those places, because a lot of times we get stuck and you don't realize that it's affecting you, your mental health, in being able to release it.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: So they always say forgive yourself first.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't understand that.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: I didn't understand that first.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Why do I have to forgive myself first?
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: I didn't do anything, but it's so true.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Because God forgave us, so we got to forgive ourselves Absolutely.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: And oh, what a wonderful blessing that he forgave us.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: It, sure is it, sure is it?
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: What a wonderful blessing that he forgave us.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: It sure is.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: It sure is.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: We can talk for days here, but let's get on to what we're talking about with you.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: So creating boundaries, what?
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: first led you to explore the topic of boundaries.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: Well, let's see, I started my coaching practice back in 2009.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: And in 2009, I started coaching women that really wanted to reach the goals they had set.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: One of the questions that I start with my clients is where do you want to be in the next five years?
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: And then, what have you done to get there?
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: To get there and I usually got crickets crickets because they weren't, they hadn't done anything to get there.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: And as I coached them, I realized there was a commonality and that commonality was the main reason people hadn't done anything with reaching their goals in the next five years is because they weren't setting the right boundaries, the healthy boundaries.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: And I wonder, there's such a difference between healthy boundaries and unhealthy boundaries, which most people don't understand.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: And in order to get where you want to be, you got set healthy boundaries, because those healthy boundaries are basically a win-win for everybody involved.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: You're not cutting anybody off, you're doing what's right for you and it's like that forgiveness.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: It's not until you forgive yourself that you realize that you're worthy enough to do the things that you wanna do, even if it's.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: I give you a period of five years.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: So what I did?
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: I realized that women weren't setting the right boundaries, so I began to focus on helping women to identify the boundaries, where boundaries are needed and where they're needed, which ones are needed and how to set them.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: And a lot of times, if you haven't like, you haven't forgiven yourself, you haven't identified the traumas that you're carrying along with you, like excess baggage on an airplane, then you're going to end up spewing.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: That suitcase that you put in that overhead compartment is going to end up opening up, spewing out all over the place.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: And that's what happens when people don't identify the boundaries that are needed and what is preventing them from setting them.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: And then what they do?
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: They end up being caught up in the triangulation with toxic people, toxic situations and they just accept them for what they are because they don't understand how important and valuable they are absolutely, absolutely.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: You put it all in a nutshell.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: That does make sense, so I want to ask you another question.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: So what's that?
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: one simple way someone can start setting healthy boundaries today to feel in their spirit, in their heart, when something just isn't right.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: When they don't feel right, then they know there's a boundary that needs to be set.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: I tell my clients all the time, wanda, when they come to me and they have a problem or a challenge, I listen to them and then I get quiet for a moment and I say, actually you don't have a problem, you just have a decision to make.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: And they think a decision yeah, you got to identify.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: What is it about this situation that doesn't sit well with you?
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: Is this a situation that, if it continues, that you'll be okay with it or you won't be okay with it?
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Does it dishonor you?
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: Does it disrespect you for who you are?
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: And a lot of times when people, if they don't know who they are and whose they are, then they'll probably find an excuse to settle for it.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's okay, they won't do it again or, I don't know, I'll get away from it.
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: No, you need to set the boundary, you need to make the decision.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: If this doesn't make me feel right, then know that I'm not going to continue this.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: That's your decision and your decision is your internal boundary, because there's also a difference between internal and external boundaries.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Your internal boundary is the boundary where you make that decision on what's right for you.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: The external boundary is the boundary you communicate or requires your action.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: So you got the thought, you got the decision.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: Now that's the internal boundary.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Now you go for the action that you take to solidify the internal boundary, the decision that you made, so that you are in a position of peace, you're in a position of joy and you can continue on with that peace, with your life and reaching the goals that you set for yourself.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: It definitely makes sense there.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: So let me ask you something how can you tell when a relationship lacks boundaries?
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: When somebody's complaining all the time.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: How many times do we have people we talk to and they just complain and then you help them through it and then they come back and they're still complaining about the same thing.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Then you weren't listening or you didn't want to.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: And here's the other thing, wanda, which I realized.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: I'm going to step on some people's toes.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Some people love misery, some people love being victims, and I talk in my book Triangulation, about victimhood.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: In fact I talked about it.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Victimhood is so important, it's so prevalent that I even talked about it in my last book.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Let's hope people get it, because you got to understand that there's no joy in victimhood, and that's one of the titles of my chapter there's no joy in victimhood.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: So you can wallow in your misery.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: But here's I do with my clients.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: This is who I am.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: I'm not here to wallow in your misery, but here's what I do with my clients.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: This is who I am.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I'm not here to wallow in your misery with you.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: I'm here to escort you out of it If you're the type of person who wants to sit here and just complain and not do anything about it, and then when somebody like you and I, wanda, we try to help them.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: Have you considered this?
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: What about this?
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: Then they come up with some excuse, excuse, no, it's really not that bad.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay, then why are we talking about this?
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about something that you want to do something about.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: Let's not wallow.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: It's like when people talk about you can hear my voice.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: I'm a horse.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: I don't say that I have a cold.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: I say I'm overcoming because it's not going to be here forever.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: It's going away and I'm going to keep on moving.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: So why would I sit here and wallow in my cold?
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: If I wanted to go away, I would wallow.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: If I wanted to stay there, or if I wasn't willing to do what I needed to do to get rid of it.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Sure, I could not take off medicine, I could not take my supplements, a lot of things I could not do.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: But you know what?
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: I don't want to stay here.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: If you don't want to stay in the misery that you're complaining about, stop complaining about it and start figuring out how to get out of it.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Make the decision and keep it to moving.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: We've heard that.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Keep it to moving.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: I really.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: I want to help people, but if they don't want to be helped themselves, then they end up staying there.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: So in a relationship, if you've got people complaining all the time, I don't care what kind of relationship it is.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: If you want to continue to complain, don't expect the person that you're with to just sit back and allow you to just complain all the time.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: If you're not willing to do anything about it, you'll start noticing wow, that person doesn't answer my phone anymore, my calls anymore.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: I wonder why.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Let's be uplifting in our conversation, let's have forward movement, let's not stay stagnant or left in a puddle or quick saying which you'll eventually go down if you continue to complain about something that you can do something about, if you simply make a decision.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: You said that and I tell you, I always say my husband said it before action speaks louder than words.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: So you're showing your action.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Continue to tell him that too.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Action speaks louder than words.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Let's do, let's just do it.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: That's the biggest thing, and as far as pushing people to just do it.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: But what's the biggest misconception about boundaries?
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Let me give an example of the biggest misconception, the difference between healthy boundaries and unhealthy boundaries.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: An unhealthy boundary is pretty much like running up against a brick wall or you putting up a brick wall.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: People get hurt and they decide you know what?
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: I don't want to get hurt again, Even if it's in relationships.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: Let's say you broke up in a relationship and that person treated you so wrong for male or female, it doesn't matter, they treated you wrong.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: So now you go and you put up a wall.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: Well, the only thing about that wall and the reason it's an unhealthy boundary is because you can't.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: You don't allow good to come in, Even if you don't allow good to come in, Even if you don't want bad to come in, you don't allow the good to come in because you can't see it.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: And the healthy boundary is putting up a fence, let's say a white picket fence, because you have a latch there.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: You can see over that and you can use not only your common sense but you can allow yourself to receive that which is good and keep out that which is bad.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: And the only way you're going to know that is if you have a fence instead of a wall, and that you do the work and I'd say in your journal, writing in your prayer, in your reading this is your opportunity to decide whether this is something that's good for you or something that's not, and so you have control over that latch on that fence, but you do not have control over that wall.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, absolutely.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: And I love that.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: So, true.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: So we're going to go on to your book Triangulation.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I'm just going to read a little part of the introduction.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: There's a war raging and you are right in the middle of it.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Because you hold something far more precious than any other creature on this earth you hold the key to God's heart.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: So just that little piece of insert.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: What is Triangulation about and why that title?
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: That's interesting because I am doing a master class on triangulation, because most people don't really understand what triangulation is and how it relates to toxic relationships.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: Triangulation is, first of all, triangulation comes from the drama triangle.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: It's a dysfunctional model of behavior that was created by Dr Stephen Clarkman back in 1968.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: And what it does is this is a what do you call it?
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: An inverted triangle.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: So it's not your upside, your regular, with the point at the top and two points on the bottom, but for an inverted triangle that's upside down, that's dysfunctional and there's three positions within that triangle.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: There's the persecutor, the victim and the rescuer.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: So a lot of times when people have dealt with childhood traumas or any kind, there's so many different traumas and people need to identify what their traumas are.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: What they end up doing is they end up behaving in a way that shows they haven't healed from that trauma, and so they'll do it in one of the three positions within that drama triangle.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: So the triangulation comes into play when you've got two people that are in conflict one way or another.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: Could be a family member, sister, brother, mother, father, aunt, co-worker, friend, business partner.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: It could be anyone.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: There's a conflict.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Then they go and run and tell it to somebody else and expect somebody else to come and solve that problem for them or get in their business.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: When you've got two people in a conflict and you bring another person in, that's three points.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: That's a triangulation and it's really I like to think of it as strangulation, because you've just created so much more havoc than you had when you first started with two people.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: And people do it every single day and so triangulation needs to be understood.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: In my masterclass I'm doing on May 17th in Atlanta, in Marietta in particular, I'm going to be providing examples of how triangulation plays out in our lives every single day and I'm going to give each participant an opportunity to identify where triangulation is out in our lives every single day.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: And I'm going to give each participant an opportunity to identify where triangulation is happening in their lives so that they can identify it, because self-awareness is key Once we identify it and what our role is in it.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Then the rest of my book talks about how to get out of triangulation, how to step out of the drama triangle, how to make sure that you're not doing the drama dance, going from one position to the other, because it's easy to do if you're not aware of what's happening, so that you can continue on and get rid of the distractions that are preventing you from living your life on purpose, for the reason that God placed you here, because we leave this earth and so full of people's drama and creating our own drama that we haven't been educated or taken the time to really identify.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: What is it that's holding me back?
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: It's not my sister, my brother, my mother, my father.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: It's not anybody but me, and I got to figure out how to take ownership of that, how to take authority of that, so that I can move on and set the boundaries the healthy boundaries that I need to figure out how to take ownership of that, how to take authority of that, so that I can move on and set the boundaries the healthy boundaries that I need to do in my relationships to make sure that they're not sabotaging me and holding me hostage to my past and preventing me from moving forward freely, in peace and joy and in hope for the future of what you have to do, because God placed you here to do something.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Now I want you to do, and everybody else to do, what I'm going to do when I die.
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: I'm going to go up to heaven.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: I'm going to be in my Jesus arms and I'm going to hear God say to me Well done, my good and faithful servant, because I didn't allow anybody else to pull me into the drama triangle and to triangulate me and take time away from me, focusing on what God placed me here to do, and to do it.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Amen, amen.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: You put it in a nutshell there, girl, I tell you I love it, because that's what we have to continue to pray and trust in God.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Really, with everything that we go through and we try to solve it ourselves.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: It's not going to solve ourselves.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: You got to ask God for help to help you with that, so let me we try to solve it ourselves.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: It's not going to solve ourselves.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: You got to ask God for help to help you with that, so let me.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: We got to move on here.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: So how does it relate to emotional or relational conflict?
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: I think you probably talked about that a little bit, so yeah, and that's why I talk about journaling.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: Journal writing is because what there are different styles of journaling.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: I typically teach on five different styles two pretty much people know about, but there's three that are advanced styles and if you can learn how to incorporate those journaling styles, it will help you to create a connection between your head and your strategy, your thinking.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: Too many times when we have problems in relationships because we're allowing our emotion, our heart, to control every decision that we make and it keeps us in misery when we do that, we got to get to the point where we snap out of the emotion, connect it with our head, our thought process, and allow the two to work in concert our head and our heart to come up with the decision that we need to make.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: So most of the time, it's patterns that we need to identify, but if we're going based on our emotions, we can't identify the patterns.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: The patterns come from thinking and putting our head with our heart and talking through it, so that we can come to a place of resolve and know what we need to do with a thought process, rather than allowing our hearts to control our decisions that we make.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: It's all about mindset.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, talk about mindset.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: It's all about that here.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: So what's one key lesson or story from the book that stands out to you?
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: I think the biggest thing is really understanding your role and your purpose here and not allowing anyone to deter you from that, because that one, as you started reading in the book Wanda is you are.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: You hold the key to God's heart, but there's somebody that doesn't want you to do what God wants you to do the enemy.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: And the enemy will do everything he can to prevent you from doing it.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: So the biggest point is showing you how the enemy is doing everything he can and what he does, and he uses this model of triangulation, of drama triangle, to prevent you from fulfilling your purpose.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: And you got to identify it and understand that the people are not your enemy.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: It's the enemy using these people to become an enemy.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: So once you figure out I do like the VA commercial.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: I could have had a VA Every situation when you journal, you can get to the point where you're like, ah, that was Satan, that wasn't that person.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: So your battle is with him.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: Your battle is not with the person, and you don't have to fight that battle alone, because God is right there with you and the Holy Spirit will teach you, when you listen, how to win the battle against the enemy so that you can do what God placed you here to do absolutely.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you said it all in there.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: That's when you shake your head.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you said that one here.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: So how do you hope triangulation helps people heal?
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, how does the book of the book help people here?
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: How do you?
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: hope triangulation helps people heal.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, how does the book of the book help people?
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: here.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: How do you hope that your book helps people heal?
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: self-awareness.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Self-awareness and not believing that you are handcuffed to any situation, to any person, because you know what, wanda, I know.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: I know you didn't talk about marriage.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: A lot of people get divorced too soon.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: They do.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: And it's because of those emotions you talked about, because you are offended.
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: And when you allow the enemy to offend you, understand what I just said.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: I didn't say when you allow that person to offend you.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: I said when you allow the enemy to offend you, because whatever is offending you check it with the word, with Bible, with prayer, with your journaling, because there's a pattern and usually that pattern is an offense that you're allowing for something to happen in your past.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: So what the book does is it helps you to not only give you self-awareness but also other awareness and enemy awareness and God awareness, because when you pull those together you are so powerful.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: You're beyond because Jesus is in you.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: And when you start to make excuses and have pity parties and become a victim, you're basically saying that Jesus is a victim and Jesus can't handle it.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Jesus can't handle it because he put inside of you everything you need to handle it.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: You just got to call on him and let him help you and he will do it, and there you go.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, I love that.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I love that because and I do inspirations every day I send it out to my friends and family and talk just to give them some kind of hope and positivity, because we need positivity in this world today.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: And making sure that you got Jesus in your life, you got God in your life, all of those help you to grow.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: So things that you say I can't do this, my father always said don't say don't, ever say I can't because can't.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Comes in cans that you're locked in.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: You have to.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Actually you can do this.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: So speak, see positivity.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: I tell my granddaughter oh, I don't feel good, then I don't.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: I said no, you say I do feel good and whatever you put out there and you manifest it, you actually know that God is going to make it work.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: So we are winding down here.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: So where do what?
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: Can we find the book and follow your work and also mention about your masterclass as well.
• 24:39
