Boundaries Without Apology

A boundary is a sentence about you, not a demand on someone else.

The quick explanation

Healthy boundaries: 'I'm not available for that.' 'I'll be leaving by 9.' 'I don't discuss my body with you.' Clear, calm, repeatable. Guilt is the tax — pay it and move on.

Why this matters

Boundaries protect energy, sleep, mood, and identity — all critical in midlife.
