Learning to Say NO

say no

Give yourself permission to say no! This has been an issue for me especially in the past couple months. Sometimes I feel like I'm being pulled in all directions and everybody seems to want a piece of me—it can be very draining.

Naturally, I can be a people pleaser. It's so hard for me to say no and reject others when they ask for help. But lately I’ve realized that I need to be better at protecting my energy and honoring my intuition. I don’t need to prove myself to anyone. I should only agree to do something when I feel a resounding YES with my entire body. Otherwise, I can deliver a high-quality no in a way that respects myself and others.
