How to Say 'No' Without Guilt

'No' is a two letter word that needs no assistance to perform its job well! But there are those of us who struggle to exercise our right to say no without feeling guilty, having that annoying knot in our throat, or feeling pressured to cave and say 'yes'.

This episode discusses some of the reasons why we may feel the need to always agree to others, even when we lack the capacity to do so. We also discuss that sometimes saying 'no' gives us the opportunity to set boundaries, which translates into respect. 

Remember, boundaries teach others how to treat you. If you're constantly giving others the opportunity to overtake you/your life, they'll forever have the power to rule you. 

Set yourself up for success by checking in with yourself about your capacity, your needs and whether or not they're being met, and also set boundaries regarding your time and energy. 

Saying no may upset others, but may be the very tool that will save you in this season.
