If Work in Progress gave you permission to stop apologizing for being a mess, Nedra Glover Tawwab's Set Boundaries, Find Peace hands you the actual toolkit—no moralizing, just frank scripts and micro-tasks for saying no without imploding your relationships. She's a therapist who writes like a human, balancing wry discipline with real-life case studies that show how messy people actually recalibrate work dynamics, family friction, and midlife singlehood.
Boundaries aren't selfishness; they're a learnable craft. Tawwab dismantles self-help myths with short, repeatable practices and language you can deploy tomorrow—not overnight transformation, just modest, behavior-focused change.
You'll walk away with things to say and do tomorrow, not just theory.
