Coles More silence less explanation: When staying quiet protects what matters most at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The knot in your stomach before every "can you just..." request. The sigh you swallow when asked to justify your weekend availability. The exhaustion of explaining why you need to step back—as if your energy requires a permission slip. *More silence, less explanation* isn't about being rude. It's about recognizing that not every boundary needs a defense. Some of the deepest protection comes from simply not engaging the argument. When you stop justifying why you're pulling back, the noise fades. What remains is your own quiet clarity: *I choose this. Not because I'm angry. Because I'm full.* This book is for anyone who's tired of negotiating their limits. For the people-pleaser who wants to be kind without being a doormat. For the overfunctioner who's learning that *no* is a complete sentence—even when left unspoken. It's not about burning bridges. It's about building a door you can close without explanation. A gentle inquiry into what happens when you stop explaining your boundaries and start living them.
