Your guide to drawing the line and setting boundaries that work
In every conversation about boundaries, you’ll inevitably hear: “‘No’ is a complete sentence.”
And, hey, fair enough. You don’t need to justify your reasons for setting healthy boundaries.
But anyone who’s tried to do this at work knows it’s not always that simple.
There are a million reasons why you would want to draw a line in the sand. Your to-do list is already a mile long, a colleague keeps interrupting you with questions, and you need to leave early to pick up your kids from daycare.
