Oh boy. Full moons make for a super spicy episode! I was reading my friends newsletter about things getting released and brought up to the surface during the full moon. Mannnnn, she was right! I was on fire!
In this episode I teach you how to say no. But with love, of course. There is a true difference between standing up for yourself and being rude. I even give you a few killer catch phrases that you can use in “almost” any example as well.
Most people believe that saying no is the end of a conversation. I don’t view it that way. Instead, I look at saying no as part of a negotiation. Most of the time people say no and then go silent. While no can be its own sentence. I’ve found that its better to offer a different solution or resource when saying no. Its all about the pivot.
People at work and family are coming to you for a reason. It might be because they have learned to rely unnecessarily on you. Or it might be that they don’t realize that what they are asking from you is crossing a boundary. So instead of always saying yes and getting bitter, why not propose a solution that works for both of you.
I go over how to say no at work. Saying no to family and saying no to yourself. You might think that self care would be on this list. But when we are always taking care of others. We need to be mindful of how we can take care of ourselves and bring our full, sparkly personality to the table. Instead of becoming a bitter and resentful person.
I also have over 7 different journal prompts to truly uncover what is stressing you out. Then give you guidance on how to solve the root of the problem.
