The Art of Saying No (Without the Guilt Spiral)
Manage episode 493308136 series 3666515
Why is “no” the hardest word to say when it could save our time, energy, and sanity?
In this episode of Life’s Side Quests, I’m tackling the deceptively small but emotionally massive act of saying no. Whether it’s declining plans, setting boundaries at work, or just not doing something that drains your soul — saying no is a form of self-respect, not rudeness.
We’ll talk about people-pleasing tendencies, boundary-setting awkwardness, and why it’s okay to disappoint others in order to protect your peace. Spoiler alert: “No” is a complete sentence — and you don’t always need a PowerPoint presentation to back it up.
If you’ve ever said yes and immediately regretted it… this one’s for you.
