"Good on sensible steps that ordinary people can take to improve their lives, Boundaries kindly yet firmly reminds the reader about the importance of saying "no" before everything gets too much, the potential problems with over-sharing and the best routes to navigate the draining dramas of office politics. Case studies from Jennie's clinical practice are motivating examples of how positive changes can be made and the use of statistics throughout give the advice a solid grounding. Will strike a chord with readers of any age needing to reconsider where they draw the line." The Independent
