“Jillian sharing about her own life is just gold! Because she is so open to sharing about herself, I felt like my own experiences were being indirectly validated. I also felt encouraged to be brave in my own life. Having these real-life examples from her is really powerful and gives me a lot of clarity.
I really love the sense of community that Jillian is supporting through this course. I feel so seen and validated in my struggles with boundaries. Thank you!”
What You’re Going To Learn
This series is about progress not perfection. When it comes to setting boundaries, we’re all going to make mistakes and be awkward dorks. Better Boundaries is here to accelerate that learning process, and help you grow gloriously and mess up mightily. (You won’t feel alone, because you’ll be doing it alongside your classmates!)
These are some of the questions that we’ll answer together:
How can I bring more love into situations with conflict?
How can I share that someone hurt me without blaming them?
What tools can I use to stay present in uncomfortable moments?
Is there a way to set sexual and romantic boundaries without ruining the mood?
How can I prepare for a crucial conversation so that I can clearly share my needs?
“I can’t express how valuable the last few weeks have been. I have tools to use in my relationships. They are easy to understand and implement, and I can use them in everyday conversation. I really am so thankful for this!! ”

“I struggle with the need to be liked and I *know* there are people in my life who aren’t worth my time. Jillian offered a powerful model of how I can stick to my guns and coexist with people through difficult situations.
I also felt more engaged than I usually do on Zoom. I really appreciated that Jillian offered stretch breaks, asked for shares from the group, and interacted with us.”
Why I started this program
A Q+A before Better Boundaries launched
I’ve been studying loneliness and the art of human connection for almost five years.
It all started when I moved to New York City. I was great at meeting new people… but bad at prioritizing deeper connection. I felt like I was constantly in spaces where "surface level" conversations were the norm.
That’s why I started The Joy List in November 2016, a weekly newsletter of events that you can attend alone and leave with a new friend. Since then, I have helped tens of thousands of people make new friends through my newsletter, my in-person socials, and speeches on stages like Startup Grind and CMX. I also published Unlonely Planet: How Healthy Congregations Can Change The World, in July of 2019.
My work has been recommended by Esther Perel, Priya Parker, the founder of Eventbrite, and more. (Not to brag— just kidding, I think all women should master the art of bragging.) I have also been featured in The Wall Street Journal, NBC, and NPR.
I have been trained by Woman Within International to host psychologically safe women’s circles, and am currently training to be a facilitator for their weekend immersive. I am also in the process of becoming a certified coach through the Coach Training Alliance.
My mission is to help people understand themselves more deeply— so that they can connect more with others. The Better Boundaries Series will help you do both of those things. Want to join me?
“Just identifying the needed boundaries within myself is a gift of this workshop, and THEN to have the tools to communicate them in a loving and direct way is helping me feel empowered and grounded in myself.”

You ask a lot of good questions! The Better Boundaries series includes:
