Boundaries Workbook
Scripts, audits, and planners for saying no without the guilt spiral.
About the workbook
Knowing you should set a boundary and having the words ready are different problems. This workbook deals with the second one: actual scripts, and a way to audit where your time and attention are going.
Written for people who are reliably the responsible one, and who find that saying no costs them the next two days.
