About this listen
Learn how to set and maintain boundaries: Overcome fear of saying no, and improve self-esteem so you can stop being taken advantage of and start building meaningful friendships.
“You have to be able to set boundaries, otherwise the rest of the world is telling you who you are and what you should be doing.” (Oprah)
In this guide, you’ll find everything you need to create these boundaries. Inside, you’ll discover:
- The number one ingredient in any healthy friendship
- A closer look at what boundaries are (so you know what you’re working towards from the get-go)
- Five early warning signs of a toxic friendship (plus the serious red flag you don’t want to ignore)
- How you can tell if your friend is taking you for granted
- The different types of boundaries you need in order to create emotional safety in any relationship
- The reason it’s often so difficult to set boundaries – and how you can overcome this problem every time
- A clear 6-step guide to setting healthy boundaries (plus practical ways to navigate any guilt you feel along the way)
- Your guide to understanding why you feel responsible for your friends–and how you can tell where to draw the line
- What to do when your friend crosses your boundaries (and what the way in which they do so tells you about their personality)
- When it’s time to walk away… complete with practical guidance for doing so gracefully
- Reliable scripts and formulas you can use to help you set new boundaries
- Practical exercises with each chapter to help you create (and stick to) healthy boundaries
Every friendship is different, but healthy ones all have one fundamental thing in common: You should always feel safe enough to be yourself. If any of your friendships leave you feeling unsafe, drained, or constantly having to prove yourself, it’s a clear sign that you need to take another look at your boundaries. And with the right guidance by your side, you’ll find that it’s a lot easier than it sounds.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

How to Use Boundaries to Make Better Friendships
Imagine growing separately without growing apart. Yeah, that's possible. I like that this book breaks it down. It gives you insight into things you imagine you'd instinctively know, but you don't. I like that the focus of boundary-setting as explained in this book is the good of the friendship - emotional safety. I feel like I have so much to say about this book. Top insights?
* There's nothing punitive about setting boundaries. How freeing!
* Boundaries protect your integrity

This book is directly on point regarding friends!
Thank you for sharing so much information on friends or our so called friends. I notice how my so called friends only want to get something from me more than spend time and help me. They mostly seek to duck off my positive energy. Thank you for helping to make boundaries for these type of toxic people

Healthy Boundaries!
This audiobook was very insightful. I've learned a great deal about boundaries in any relationship and how it helps to improve your relationship and strengthen your confidence. I now have a new perspective on what a good friend should be and how to spot toxic friendships and relationships.
I also enjoyed listening to Chapter 4 (How to Set boundaries with friends). It's sometimes challenging to create boundaries with friends because of the fear of losing them or hurting their feelings, but this book helps with what approach to take and provides guidance on overcoming these fears. It offers exercises to ask yourself how to be specific about what you want in your friendship.

We See You, Hear You, And You Are Accepted!
It’s so hard these days to find true friends and also to define what true friendship is. Despite a world full of fake people, fake reality, etc., this audiobook made me realize that I can still find true friends even by setting boundaries. One of the messages that stood out for me in this audiobook is that the constant message you receive when you are around friends who make you feel safe is, “we see you; we hear you and you are accepted.” I recommend this audiobook especially for those who are interested in creating meaningful friendships.

Much Needed
As an assistant Pastor, I, unfortunately, have to deal with conflict regularly. I statements are a must when communicating our feelings and expectations. Proper tone and mutual respect go a long way.

Educational and interesting
My wife listened to this audio with me.
So often people are not familiar with setting boundaries or they are taught to set boundaries in work or romantic relationships. Setting Boundaries With Friends is a must read for developing and maintaining healthy relationships
and boundaries within friendships. The book has a wealth of information and resources.
It is also a tool for further establishing a healthier mental health.
I recommend this audiobook.

So incredibly helpful
This books really helped me how to set up boundaries with my friends and any person I care about really. Its a book for everyone to read because it really talks about important things you might no be thinking about when it comes to these types of things and makes you go back and think them through so you can look at them from a different angle. Really helpful!

Great for people pleasers
One of my friends is a people pleaser (something he's aware of and working on), and I feel like this audiobook addresses a lot of what he goes through in his relationships with friends, like finding it super hard to say no to people when he'd rather do something else, fear of missing out, and problems with self-esteem. This book is a great guide to help improve this, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone going through something similar!
