The Book On Saying No: How to Take Back Your Time Without Burning Bridges

By Sage Monroe

Every "yes" you give costs something - your time, your focus, your energy, or your resources. The problem is that most people give away those "yeses" far too freely. They say yes to things they don't want, can't manage, or shouldn't be doing - all because they don't know how to say no without guilt. The Book On Saying No is a no-fluff, practical manual that strips away the myths about people-pleasing and replaces them with clear, actionable tools.

You'll learn how to identify your true priorities, communicate boundaries without burning bridges, and make decisions that protect your most valuable resource: yourself. This isn't about becoming selfish; it's about becoming intentional. You'll see how saying no is a way of saying yes - yes to your goals, yes to your health, yes to relationships that matter, and yes to a life built on your terms. Through a combination of proven strategies, scripts, and mindset shifts, The Book On Saying No gives you the language to stand firm without apology and without damaging your reputation.

Whether you're drowning in commitments, struggling with pushy colleagues, or simply tired of feeling resentful every time you agree to something you don't want to do, this book will give you the clarity and confidence to change. Say no - and mean it - so you can say yes to what matters most.
