Synopsis
Essential advice for anyone who feels put-upon by life, on how to carve out your place in a busy world Our boundaries--the limits we place on what we will and won't tolerate--establish the dynamics of our parenting, jobs, relationships . . . everything. Healthy boundaries create a space where we feel safe, clear, and confident about who we are and what we want. But drawing those lines is often wrongly criticized as selfish, and making space is harder and harder in our ever-encroaching world.
In this practical guide, Jayne Hardy--founder and CEO of The Blurt Foundation--helps us reexamine how our boundaries are working for or against us, and she guides us to better protect our physical, emotional, and digital spaces. Packed with friendly advice and easy journaling exercises, Making Space reminds those of us on the edge of burnout to stop and ask: "Is this kind to me, too?"
Synopsis
Let healthy boundaries define the space where you can truly thrive. Boundaries may not sound like the key to freedom--but when our boundaries are fuzzy or missing, we often end up fenced in by others' wants and needs. If you say yes when your energy is MIA and your to-do list is overflowing--if you jump when your email pings well after dinner or let your partner's or kid's schedule rule your day--now is the time to reclaim some space
Making Space will clear the way for what you need--and for what you want. With this relatable, compassionate guide, you'll create strong boundaries around work, home, relationships, and more:
- Face the fear of rejection and let go of stress.
- Prioritize sleep and boost your overall health.
- Build self-esteem and get back in touch with you.
- Assert yourself with kindness and confidence
We're all worthy of boundaries that keep us safe, happy, and healthy. You get to take up space, too
