How to set a boundary and not cry.

In this short monologue, Chloe Spillane outlines a practical approach to establishing clear communication boundaries in a professional relationship. She begins by acknowledging the other person's busy schedule, then points out the shift from daily contact and weekly one‑on‑ones to sporadic interactions. She proposes a conversational script that checks in on the other’s well‑being and asks whether the current communication cadence needs adjustment. Chloe stresses that the goal isn’t to demand daily contact or weekly meetings, but to secure transparent expectations about how often and in what format communication will occur. She also validates any discomfort the boundary‑setting conversation might cause, reassuring the listener that a supportive organization will hear the request and make necessary changes to improve comfort. The overall message is that clear, empathetic boundary‑setting is both reasonable and essential for a healthy work environment.
