5 Holiday Boundary Scripts

Kind, clear words for the moments that tend to catch you off guard this season.

The holidays can pull us right back into old roles: the peacekeeper, the fixer, the one who says yes and pays for it later. These five short scripts give you something to say when you're caught off guard, so you don't have to come up with the right words on the spot.

Inside, you'll find simple language for:

  • Saying no to an invitation without over-explaining
  • Changing the subject when questions get too personal
  • Leaving early, or arriving late, without guilt
  • Responding to comments about your choices, your body, or your plate
  • Taking a pause when you need a moment to yourself
