Welcome to The Dear Bri Podcast, an advice column for community conundrums, fiascos, and drama. In this episode, we’re hearing from Frazzled Fairy-Marketing-Godmother. Our letter today comes from someone who clearly has a big heart for their community, but is also really struggling to draw boundaries.
To better help Frazzled Fairy-Marketing-Godmother, I invited Taylor Harrington — Head of Community at Groove— as my guest expert. I knew this letter would be perfect for Taylor because this is a topic we’ve discussed often behind the scenes as community builders.
So, tune in for a remarkable episode as we talk about making tough calls and standing by them, some awesome practical ideas for how to create boundaries to protect your time and energy, releasing the identity of the community leader who has to be everything for everyone, and much more.
In this episode:

(11:41) Bri’s worst leadership failure
(15:31) The communitea: Frazzled Fairy-Marketing-Godmother’s letter
(18:25) Boundaries for ourselves, coworkers, and community members
(23:32) The cost of saying yes to something
(29:37) Shifting away from the identity of being the person who's there for everyone
(32:46) The importance of establishing boundaries upfront
(35:00) The “Yes, and/No, but” concept
(39:50) The secret ingredient for asserting boundaries

Noteworthy quotes:
“When you are someone who loves to run an experiment and try new things, and not commit to it being something that's going to happen forever, that means that you're going to fail. Things are going to flop. Things are going to be learning moments that you weren't expecting.“ - Taylor Harrington
“ In community work, going above and beyond… there are certain seasons for it, I will say, but as a practice, it's unsustainable.“ - Bri Leever
