Brave Boundaries

Strategies to Say No, Stand Strong, and Take Control of Your Time: The Key to Living Empowered

By: Sasha Shillcutt MD

Narrated by: Sasha Shillcutt

No matter how educated they are or how far they have climbed up the ladder, women are taught one thing over and over at every stage of their lives: when someone asks you for help, you say yes. Women are supposed to agree to take on whatever is asked of them, regardless of how busy they are. No matter how much a woman deeply desires to say no, the societal expectation is that women are helpers-taught to fix problems, show up at all times, and not let people down. They are instructed to never say no to tasks or duties asked of them, even when they are drowning in work and barely hanging on by a thread. This leads to feelings of immense failure, inauthenticity, and burnout.

Dr. Sasha Shillcutt has known this feeling, too, but now she shows women there is another way. Having coached thousands of professional women and business leaders in her classes and conferences, she knows that setting boundaries is the essential lesson that they need to learn in order to avoid burnout. In her special down-to-earth way, Sasha will show listeners how to erect fences that protect their physical and mental health while providing opportunities for joy and growth. Listeners will learn that boundaries are kind, not restrictive, and being a person with boundaries is the most empowering and peaceful way to live. They will learn to say no to others and say yes to themselves.

Inspiring, insightful and practical

I absolutely loved listening to this book. I have learned so much about setting boundaries and reinforcing them. I have learned a new skill. I can proudly call myself a boundary rebel. Thank you so much Dr Sasha

I needed to read this!

I didn't realize that not setting boundaries has contributed to a lot of my stress, resentment, and unhappiness. This book helps you process and start setting boundaries to protect your own well being. I highly recommend it.
