Setting Boundaries - A Guide for Spiritual Practitioners
What happens when spiritual practitioners forget that boundaries are part of the work?
In this episode of the Spirit Sherpa Podcast, Kelle Sparta and Joshua Radewan explore one of the most important—and most ignored—skills in spiritual practice: boundaries.
The conversation covers physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual boundaries with clients, spirit guides, deities, and even yourself. Kelle shares personal experiences from her healing journey and explains why many spiritual practitioners unintentionally create burnout, energetic overwhelm, and unhealthy practitioner-client dynamics when strong boundaries are missing.
This episode explores:
- spiritual boundaries
- energetic protection
- empath boundaries
- psychic self-care
- healer burnout
- wounded healer syndrome
- energy hygiene
- spiritual ethics
- boundaries with spirit guides and deities
- red flags in spiritual work
- client boundary issues
- avoiding energetic drain
- shadow work readiness
- grounded spiritual practice
Kelle and Josh also discuss why discernment matters in spiritual spaces and how some practitioners accidentally normalize unhealthy dynamics in the name of spirituality, healing, or service.
Because compassion without boundaries eventually becomes self-abandonment.
This conversation is especially relevant for healers, coaches, psychics, empaths, facilitators, energy workers, and spiritual practitioners trying to build sustainable practices without sacrificing their mental, emotional, or energetic well-being.
