The Boundary-Setting Playbook for Chronic People-Pleasers
A psychological wellness framework for saying no without guilt, shame, or self-abandonment
You say yes when you mean no. You overcommit, over-explain, and override your own limits to keep the peace. You tell yourself it’s kindness — but it’s costing you your mental clarity, emotional energy, and self-trust.
The Truth:
Boundaries aren’t about being difficult. They’re about nervous system regulation, emotional/mental capacity, and honoring what’s true — even when it disappoints someone else.
What This Playbook Does:
This isn’t theory. It’s a step-by-step psychological framework that helps you:
Recognize the conditioning that taught you to abandon your boundaries
Regulate your nervous system before, during, and after setting limits
Practice saying no in ways that feel aligned — not aggressive or apologetic
Who This Is For:
Chronic people-pleasers who feel guilty for having needs
High-achievers who say yes to everything and burn out quietly
Anyone who knows what they want but struggles to protect it
