Why People Ignore Your Boundaries
If you struggle to say no, you might not have a boundary problem—you might have an overexplaining problem.
In this episode, I break down why giving too many reasons weakens your boundaries, turns your no into a negotiation, and makes it easier for people to push past your limits. I’ll show you how to set firm boundaries with fewer words, stronger statements, and simple phrases you can use right away to protect your time, energy, and peace.
