Kdybych matce řekla, že na to nemám čas, tak se mnou už v životě nepromluví!Podobná prohlášení důvěrně znají mnozí z nás. Potýkají se s kulturně podmíněným vzorcem chování, kvůli němuž jsou přesvědčeni, že musejí za každých okolností všem vycházet vstříc na úkor vlastních potřeb. To vede k pocitům úzkosti, ztráty identity, k potlačovanému vzteku a někdy i k vyhoření. Kniha odlehčeným, zábavným způsobem pomocí nově vytvořené humorné terminologie uvažuje o příčinách tohoto postoje a nabízí řešení spočívající v různých aspektech respektování vlastních hranic a potřeb. Zabývá se důvody, proč je tak obtížné něco odmítnout, zejména blízkým osobám, tělesnými projevy odmítnutí a spouštěči tohoto rozpoložení. Analyzuje různé druhy „ne“ a jednotlivé oblasti, v nichž je potřeba jednoznačně odmítnout. Jedná se například o vymezení vůči dětem, žadatelům o finanční příspěvek, rodičům, bývalým partnerům, sousedům, přátelům nebo zvířatům.

Věnuje se též špatnému svědomí po odmítnutí. „Lékárnička odmítání“ v závěrečné části knihy obsahuje: pomoc při rozhodování, vhodné odmítací formulace, jak získat čas, kdy je potřeba zalhat a návod, jak si vést „odmítací deník“ či „vision board“, kde si stanovíme, proti čemu je třeba se vymezit.
