""Where many books tell you ""what"" to do, Andrei takes it much further by showing you ""how"" to create healthy boundaries in your life. This is where his book shines; by giving us step by step instructions on how to implement boundaries in our lives, we're able to navigate areas of our lives that we're not quite sure of and do so in a comfortable steps."" ""I have been in private practice for over 15 years counseling others in codependent recovery. I, myself am also a recovering codependent among other things. I have read and listened to many codependent/boundary resources over the years. I have to say that this is my top resource thus far for the following reasons: 1. Easy to read and understand. 2. The author uses examples and clear definitions of each concept. 3. Questions at the end of each chapter to allow for self discovery. 4. Presents boundary setting in a more clear and concise way than I've seen in other resources. As both a therapist and a recipient of therapy I appreciate the straightforwardness of this material. And as one who is challenged with Adult ADHD I am able to comprehend and apply this information much more effectively. I typically buy multiples of this authors books to give to clients. Needless to say I highly recommend this book."" ""If you're a people pleaser, don't want to make anyone unhappy at you for telling truth and saying no. This book is for you. It helps to identify certain situations and actions and if you're experiencing them what to do. We have to set boundaries otherwise we are constantly being taken advantage of and some may not even know it. They think it's okay. It's time for you to take control over your life and have time to do some of the things you love or want to try. It's your life and you get to spend some time on yourself Self-love. This will help you see and how to take action. This is a great book and I will recommend it to my students."" ""I've never been great at starting and finishing self-help books, no matter how motivated I am to begin with, but this was a really easy and enjoyable read. Each week encompassed a different stage of boundary setting, whether it was preparing you mentally or actioning boundaries, or even dealing with the reactions of others after setting your boundaries. Accompanied with some really good, and very relatable, stories that I could apply to my own life. I feel as though this book covered all of the bases. I really enjoyed this read and have already started talking to my friends and loved ones about boundaries and I am able to be more mindful for myself and those around me. I've also recommended it to several loved ones already!""
