In 2023, I spent a lot of time writing about healthy communication skills, boundaries and identifying abuse and manipulation on Medium. And in spending a lot of time on mental health forums answering questions about boundaries, I decided to compile my material into a 38-page book with cute graphics of succulents and cacti (because they’re prickly but loved anyway).
The workbook includes
- Why we have trouble with boundaries
- What environments and individuals may make enforcing boundaries hard
- Figuring out our needs, that will make defining our boundaries clearer and easier
- What boundaries are and are not
- Canned scripts and repetition–because nothing is wrong with what you need!
- Journaling prompts and self-care reminders
Here’s a preview of the workbook. You can flip through the 15-page preview below or download the preview for free here. (Do ignore the page numbers on the preview pages!
