Reviews
"Tougias sees a 'beauty of no;' by setting boundaries one can zero in on what is important. For him, that means more time for his family, his health, his hobbies of bike riding and being in nature and writing."

"I don't know anyone who won't benefit from this book. We all struggle to say no, and when we fail to do so, we sacrifice things that would be better, or simply more enjoyable, uses of our time. No Will Set You Free offers smart, interactive solutions to help you get better at saying no while minimizing hurt feelings and maintaining relationships. It's a punchy, practical, indispensable guide."
