Year of Boundaries Part 2: Love & Boundaries (Love Without Losing Yourself)

Love should feel safe, not exhausting!

In Love & Boundaries, participants explore how to build and maintain healthy relationships while protecting their emotional well-being. Many people enter relationships with good intentions but lose their voice, ignore red flags, or struggle to communicate their needs.

This session helps participants understand how healthy boundaries create stronger, safer relationships, not distance.

Led by JaKay Matheny, Sr., LCSW, this session blends clinical insight with real-life experiences to explore how boundaries impact romantic relationships, friendships, and family connections. Participants will learn how to remain open to love while protecting their peace, identity, and emotional safety.

• Healthy dynamics in romantic relationships
• Setting boundaries with family and friends
• Recognizing unhealthy relationship patterns
• Dating after emotional burnout or heartbreak
• Communicating needs without fear or guilt
• Maintaining emotional safety while staying open to connection

Healthy love allows you to be fully yourself without losing your voice or your peace.

Participants will learn how to build emotionally safe relationships by setting clear boundaries, communicating honestly, and recognizing the difference between healthy love and unhealthy patterns.

• Speaker presentation
• Panel discussion with clinical and lived experience perspectives
• Audience Q&A

Many people are taught to sacrifice their needs to maintain relationships. Over time, this can lead to emotional burnout, resentment, and unhealthy dynamics.

Session 2 helps participants understand that boundaries are not barriers to love—they are the foundation of healthy relationships. When individuals learn to communicate their needs and protect their emotional well-being, relationships become more honest, respectful, and sustainable.

This session empowers participants to love deeply while remaining grounded, confident, and emotionally safe.
