Boundaries For Myself

The part that I enjoyed the most was setting boundaries for myself. I had never thought about how important setting self-made boundaries would be for my mental health. I highly recommend this book and loved Melissa reading it.

Life Changing!!🙌

Set the limits that will set you free! Brilliant! A must read for anyone that wishes to improve their life.

Helpful & thoughtful

I have always enjoyed MU’s thoughts on social media and was glad to have been able to listen to her book. Even though we don’t see eye to eye on some personal things, I appreciate the value her approach adds to my arsenal of healthy living.

Well worth a listen!

A very helpful book for people who struggle to set boundaries. Has literal scripts you can follow in it to set a boundary.

One of the best books I’ve ever read!!

This book is completely transformative and practical. I’ve already started using multiple scripts and practices taught in this book. I also loved that this is narrated by the author, giving a personal touch. Listening to this honestly left like talking to my therapist, or an old friend. The information in this book is also very easy to absorb and use in daily living. Thank you Melissa Urban, you’ve helped me take back my time and strengthen my relationships!

Life Changing

This book was eye opening. I was immediately able to start applying concepts I learned as I was reading and made several bookmarks to come back to. Great book!

Best self improvement book

I love this book, and the way it teaches the importance of, and how to do, boundaries. I’ve already recommended it to everyone I talk to. I’m already seeing the positive impact of the book in my life.

Just in time

Loved this book and used what I needed. Thank you for having the book on audible.

A must read

As someone who is fairly good with boundaries but one that struggles with them in very specific areas of my life I found this book extremely helpful. the scripts were wonderful for talking through issues from your children to in-laws to spouses to friends. Most issues are covered here & I was able to recognize myself in situations that I didn't even realize I was having as boundary breaking. I have already recommended this to several friends.

Such a helpful book!

I really struggled to make boundaries in all areas of my life and this book is so helpful in guiding me to be better about that. I loved hearing the Author actually speak to it as well. Would highly recommend!
