Stop Defending - an Emotional Self-Defense Guide: How to Protect Your Emotions Without Defensiveness

Stop Defending - The Emotional Self-Defense Guide is a bold, relatable, and empowering handbook for anyone who's ever felt the sting of emotional manipulation, people-pleasing burnout, or the pressure to constantly justify themselves.

In a world that often demands we stay quiet, shrink ourselves, or smooth things over, author MJ Meredith delivers a fierce and practical guide to reclaiming your confidence-without becoming combative. Through a mix of punchy insights, real-life case studies, and step-by-step strategies, Stop Defending teaches you how to flip the script on passive-aggression, guilt-trips, and emotional bullies of all kinds-whether they show up in the workplace, your family, your relationship, or your own inner critic.

Inside you'll learn:

  • How to recognise manipulation and call it out-without overexplaining
  • The Three-Step Emotional Self-Defense Strategy for calm, confident conversations
  • How to shut down guilt trips, backhanded comments, and subtle put-downs
  • The 'Nike Moment' (Just Do It) vs. the 'Elsa Moment' (Let It Go) approach to procrastination
  • Simple boundary-setting scripts and body language cues that convey strength
  • How to walk through life with unapologetic presence-even if you weren't "born confident"

Stop Defending isn't just a book. It's a toolkit for emotional clarity, assertiveness, and freedom.

Whether you're navigating toxic relationships, breaking free from self-doubt, or stepping into leadership, this guide will show you how to stand your ground with grace-and stop wasting energy defending who you are.
