Feeling stretched too thin? Saying “yes” when you want to say “no” is one of the fastest tracks to burnout—especially in healthcare. In this episode, I dive into The Yes Trap and unpack why learning to say “no” isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s a power skill that protects your time, energy, and sanity. You’ll also learn 11 practical types of “no" that you can start implementing today, real-world boundary-setting scripts, and how to push back gracefully without guilt. Be sure to grab the free companion cheat sheet: How to Say No Gracefully (Without Guilt): Scripts + Boundaries for Burnout Prevention — packed with scripts, examples, and boundary-setting tips specifically for clinicians. 

This is a can't miss episode for all healthcare professionals! Don't forget to share with all your colleagues that could benefit: physician assistants / physician associates, nurse practitioners, nurse anesthetists, physicians, psychologists, therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, pharmacists, optometrists, speech language pathologists, dietitians, respiratory therapists, audiologists, etc.!
