You're stretched too thin, saying yes when you mean no, and watching your best work hours disappear into other people's priorities. This guide gives you the exact words, systems, and strategies to reclaim your time, protect your energy, and finally feel in control at work—without guilt or awkwardness.

Every Sunday night, that familiar knot forms in your stomach. Another week of back-to-back meetings you didn't want to attend. Emails at 9 PM you felt obligated to answer. Projects piling up because you couldn't say no to your coworker's "quick favor." You're exhausted, resentful, and watching your productivity tank while everyone else seems to have endless access to your time.

The worst part? You know something needs to change, but every time you try to push back, the guilt creeps in. What if they think you're difficult? What if you damage important relationships? So you stay silent, and the cycle continues.
