LISTEN TO EP 78: APPLE PODCAST | SPOTIFY

Today, we're going to talk about one of the most powerful tools in your self-care toolkit - the power of saying no. Many of us struggle with saying no, whether it's because we're afraid of hurting someone's feelings or because we feel like we have to say yes to everything.

As someone who used to be a chronic people pleaser, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to set boundaries and say no when you're used to saying yes all the time. But the truth is, saying no is an essential part of self-care, and it's something that we all need to learn how to do. It's one of the most important things you can do to protect your time, energy, and emotional well-being.

So let's explore ten ways to say no politely and respectfully, with a focus on mindfulness, optimism, and personal growth.
