Setting Boundaries at Work: A Practical Guide to Protecting Your Time, Energy, and Focus Without Guilt or Conflict (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798197506993)

Do you feel overcommitted, constantly available, and quietly drained by work?

You may be wondering whether you need a new job, a new career, or a complete change. Sometimes you do. But sometimes the first question is simpler:

What would this work feel like if your time, energy, focus, and role were better protected?

Setting Boundaries at Work is a calm, practical guide for professionals who want to reduce overcommitment, say no more clearly, manage urgency, protect focus, and communicate limits without guilt or unnecessary conflict.

Inside, you will learn how to:

• recognize the overcommitment patterns that keep you saying yes
• protect your time from meetings, interruptions, and last-minute requests
• identify energy leaks caused by ambiguity, emotional labor, and role confusion
• say no without overexplaining
• negotiate deadlines and clarify priorities
• set after-hours and remote work boundaries
• handle guilt and pushback calmly
• create a 30-day workplace boundary reset

This book does not ask you to become rigid, selfish, or confrontational. It shows you how to become clearer, steadier, and more realistic about your capacity.

Better boundaries can change how work feels, and help you make career decisions from clarity instead of burnout.

Career clarity before career change.
