About this listen
Respectfully, No presents a realistic guide to truly understand the importance of boundaries. Written from the perspective of someone who grew up not knowing what personal boundaries were, the author gives a realistic take on the process of setting boundaries from scratch. She shows how trauma affected her decisions in each relationship and ultimately her boundary-setting ability. She shares some useful tips and examples that would have been helpful to know along the way.
Examples and tips included are to use as tools when faced with situations where you feel like a door mat in relation to your partner, your parents, your boss, or during sex, or maybe even when you're feeling like you are under psychic attack—and so many other situations!
Boundary setting changes the game and puts you in control of your life! Regain your self-worth and take care of yourself. You are no good to anyone if you aren't taking care of yourself first.
This book includes boundary-setting guides, tips, and examples for empaths, for dealing with narcissists, trauma, psychic attacks, technology, parents, children, relationships, and work environments. The author gives examples from her own life, showing firsthand the importance your childhood plays in molding your foundations for boundary setting and the negative impacts childhood trauma can play in our boundary-setting capabilities as adults.

These are just some words used to describe the reality of dating after divorce. Like all major life changes, going through a divorce can be a very stressful time. No matter how long you were married, the act of parting from the person in life you may have been closest to can be jarring, challenging, and heartbreaking. The emotional exhaustion, the fear of failure, and that nagging feeling that maybe you're just meant to be alone can all make dating seem like a chore or something you don't want to do.
