Awesome!

Very well written and equally well presented. The strategies listed here are simple and yet very workable!

Love the book!!!

This book has immediate practical use and contains a lot of good tips and strategies combined with nice and clear narration. I would definitely recommend it and easily reread it.

Informative

I like the direct and logical delivery. the author applies his logic and planning to everyday scenarios, instead of just telling you what you should do or shouting snappy one liners. it was a very good and systematic way of laying out ways to say NO. would reccomend to push overs and guilt trippers alike.

Must read and listen this book

I would recommend this as a must read book. It talks about the practical issue one faces during his personal and professional life therefore he or she should know how important is the art of saying NO in one's lie.

Easy to listen to learned a lot!

I would recommend this audiobook it’s packed full of good tips! Having always a hard time saying no he gives actual phrases etc.

Validating

Didn’t hear anything “new,” but as someone who grew up in a codependent family, it was validating to hear all the things i know to be true that i get gaslit for. But I’ve done a lot of therapy. If you haven’t reached this point in your life and still feel “obligated” to others, this is probably a must read.

Great book.

Great book on this topic. I highly recommend it to everyone who struggles with this.

Great advice

While listening to this book, I received two phone calls asking for giving. I feel I have been take advantage of by these two charities because they are not the same, but share the same name so I would give thinking I was helping kids when I’m not sure now because there are 4 of them in total. Long story short, this book helped me say no, even though I sucked at the first phone call, I felt hostile when I heard the man’s request, I did great on the second call. TB2G

Covered family and work

It was helpful and full of common sense. The recommendations were solid and I realized I could be worse.

AMAZING! INSIGHTFUL! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This book came to me at the PERFECT TIME! Truly amazing at defining the various reasonings for not being able to say NO! Brought such awareness of my own experiences & difficulties behind saying NO!
