Want to help your clients & followers with boundary issues? If you are stuck on that aspect, I’ve created a free setting healthy boundaries worksheet which you can use with your clients (download below!). They will experience a mindset shift which will help them see the benefits of setting healthy, self-caring boundaries.
Why do we need Healthy Boundaries?
Everyone can benefit from setting healthy boundaries. However, the reason your client needs to set healthy boundaries is going to be different from person to person.
For example, do they find themselves over-committing to things because they can’t say ‘no’ to?
Or is it something along the lines of allowing people to affect their mental health?
Not setting healthy boundaries can cause stress, resentment, unfulfilled goals, frustration…the list goes on.
Talk to your client about what EXACTLY they will gain from setting healthy boundaries.
If you are stuck with helping your clients pinpoint the BENEFITS of setting healthy boundaries, you can use my free mindset tool to help them set healthy, self-caring boundaries (below):
Once your client can see why they need to set healthy boundaries (and the benefits they will get from setting them!) they will feel motivated with actually setting those boundaries.

Pinpoint your client’s ‘Ideal Situation’
Because “healthy boundaries” look different for everyone, you have to work through what the ideal situation would be for your client.
If the ideal situation is to be able to say ‘No’ to that colleague who is always taking advantage of your client’s nice nature, how can your client achieve that?
What boundaries (and how) does your client need to set to get to that ideal situation?
If you need inspiration on 5 ways to set healthy relationship boundaries, this blog post will help!
Also, setting healthy boundaries can encompass changing our own habits.
Maybe your client is struggling with comparing herself to others because she spends too much time on social media. She then needs to set a boundary around the use of social media.
Coach them in identifying how they want to feel (or not feel!) and how they can get there through boundary setting.
Discuss what to do to enforce Boundaries
The hardest part about setting healthy boundaries isn’t about deciding or setting the boundaries themselves.
Most people can quickly figure out what boundaries they need to set.
The hardest part for many people is dealing with the people in their lives around those ‘new’ boundaries.
(No one wants to make people they care about, feel bad or uncomfortable. Nor do they want to confront their loved ones or hurt their relationships.)
Help your clients by laying out exactly what to do, or how to handle tricky situations which will arise when new boundaries are set.
This will empower them to have the tools ready when sticky situations happen so that they can remain strong and feel confident when their boundaries are tested (which will happen over and over again until the people in your client’s life get used to her new boundaries).
Help your Client understand his or her Right for having Boundaries!
At first glance, boundaries can seem selfish especially when it comes to dealing with other people.
For people who have trouble setting boundaries, they may feel that they should just continue to allow others to act a certain way towards them.
It can take a lot of work to get to a place where your client understands their right to have boundaries. Reassurance that they have every right to set healthy boundaries (and helping them go over the benefits of boundaries) can help them re-frame their mindset.

Free Coaching Tool: Overcome ‘All or Nothing’ Thinking worksheet
I’ve created a free editable worksheet which helps your followers + coaching clients overcome anxious thoughts. This worksheet helps overcome all or nothing thinking and lower their anxiety by questioning their anxious thoughts.
I’ve created a free editable worksheet which helps your followers + coaching clients overcome anxious thoughts. This worksheet helps overcome all or nothing thinking and lower their anxiety by questioning their anxious thoughts.
All or nothing thinking gives rise to anxiety because it places a high standard on yourself and others. This done-for-you coaching tool will help to relax perfectionistic thoughts and lower anxious feelings.
You know what’s cool? You can edit and brand this free coaching tool in Canva. Use it as a free lead magnet or during your coaching calls!
If you want to get more subscribers or sell a 27-page Overcome Anxiety coaching workbook to your followers, you will want to check out my Overcome Anxiety Guide (editable in Canva too).
How do I use the Overcome All-or-Nothing Thinking Tool?
This tool will pinpoint the exact all-or-nothing thoughts that your clients or prospects have. They may have more than 1 prominent all-or-nothing thought in their minds at any one time.
Your client will also be asked to think where their black-and-white thinking comes from.
Did it come about because they grew up with high expectations from their family members?
It is interesting to observe that people with all-or-nothing thinking can be harsh with themselves and have unrealistic standards.
Even if they have reached a goal, they can discount their own efforts and claim that the goal was ‘too easy’ or that they were ‘lucky’.
How to reframe all-or-nothing thinking to lower anxiety
This practice takes time. Whenever your client has an all-or-nothing thought, challenge them to change the thought to be more ‘balanced’.
The important thing is, to make sure that they feel RELIEVED with this new ‘balanced’ thought.
Eg: “If I eat a few bites of that chocolate cake today, my diet is not completely ruined. I may not be eating 100% healthy this week, but I’m eating healthy 80% of the time.”
Another alternative is to get your client (or prospect) to imagine what their trusted friend/loved one would say to them if they voiced out their all-or-nothing thought.
Eg: “What do you think your friend Lena would say if you told her that: You are afraid your business income will drop this month if you took a break today?”
You can also encourage your clients to write down evidence which prove their all-or-nothing thoughts wrong. This is a powerful tactic because there is black-and-white proof that their extreme thoughts can be wrong.
My last thoughts on this ‘all-or-nothing’ thinking worksheet
This all-or-nothing thinking worksheet is free and you can edit it in Canva. Use it as a lead magnet to get more subscribers or use during coaching.

“How can I use the FREE Discover Your Strengths in 3 Minutes coaching exercise to boost self-worth?”
If your client has low self-esteem or is unaware of her strengths, this free coaching exercise will help.
Free brandable + editable coaching tool
Tell your client to set a timer for 3 minutes and write ALL of her strengths, skills, positive traits continuously. This works because the time limit pressure means that most of her answers will be uncensored and come from her subconscious mind.
After this exercise is done, get your client to read what she has written. How does she feel knowing she has all of the strengths written on it?
By right, she should feel at least 10% more confident than before she started.
This is a powerful and effective free tool to uncover one’s positive traits and talents even if you’ve only met your client for the first time!
As a coach, you can also work on this exercise to give yourself a dose of confidence during times when you need it most :)
There are many other self-esteem tools to help your clients boost self-worth if you suspect they have self-esteem issues.
