For women in these fields, the pressure to perform, conform and quietly absorb bias can wear down confidence and well-being.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this powerful and deeply personal guide, Julia Gibney explores how clear, compassionate and courageous boundaries form the foundation for both professional success and personal integrity. Drawing on lived experience and practical strategies, she unpacks the social, emotional and cultural dynamics that make boundary-setting especially complex in male-dominated spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book also highlights a critical and often overlooked truth: neurodivergence is significantly more prevalent in STEM than in the general population. With it come unique strengths - and unique challenges. Julia explores how masking, sensory overload and rigid workplace norms make boundary-setting even more vital for neurodivergent professionals, and how values-aligned boundaries can support well-being, communication and authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom silent expectations around roles and communication to the subtle ways workplace culture spills into home life, this book offers guidance for navigating competing demands without losing sight of who you are. You'll learn the difference between standing for yourself - staying true to your values and goals - and standing up for yourself when challenged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlending storytelling, insight and actionable tools, Julia invites readers to build boundaries that are not barriers but bridges - structures that protect what matters while making space for genuine connection and growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julia Gibney\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0645998028\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780645998023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Winter and Associates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Julia Gibney","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48487364296959,"sku":"9780645998023","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_96fb7406-d8a2-4419-9a93-286a453eafad.jpg?v=1778060060","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-boundary-blueprint-julia-gibney-9780645998023","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
