Boundaries, Baby: How to Say 'No' and Still Be a Rockstar Educator
A bold, compassionate survival guide for the overworked teacher who's ready to stop people-pleasing and start protecting their peace.
You love teaching—but lately, it's been loving you back a lot less. The endless meetings, committee requests, emails after hours, and guilt-driven "yeses" are burning you out.
It's time to reclaim your time, your energy, and your sanity—without giving up your passion for education.
In "Boundaries, Baby," you'll find a refreshingly honest (and sometimes sassy) roadmap to setting healthy limits as an educator. Packed with scripts, real-life scenarios, and boundary-setting strategies that actually work in the trenches of schools, this book is your permission slip to stop being the go-to for everything—and start being the rockstar educator you were meant to be.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
✅ Say "no" without guilt or burning bridges
✅ Stop drowning in meetings, emails, and "just one more thing"
✅ Handle pushback with confidence and grace
✅ Shift your mindset from over-functioning to intentional balance
✅ Redefine what it means to be a "good" teacher—on your terms
With myth-busting truth bombs, practical scripts, and boundary boss challenges, you'll get tools to protect your peace, model self-respect for students, and build a more sustainable, joyful teaching career.
Whether you're a new teacher learning to set limits or a veteran educator tired of saying "yes" to everything, this book will help you stop surviving and start thriving—without apology.
Because boundaries aren't barriers. They're your superpower.
