225. Mindset Reset: The Trick To Saying No Without The Guilt As A Working Mom
Hi Mamas,
If you’ve ever found yourself reheating the same cup of coffee for the third time—while RSVP-ing “sure, I’ll bake 48 gluten-free, dairy-free, unicorn-shaped cupcakes”… today’s episode is for you.
We’re diving into Paulo Coelho’s reminder:
“When you say ‘yes’ to others, make sure you’re not saying ‘no’ to yourself.”
Because every yes comes with an invoice… paid in sleep, sanity, or that bedtime snuggle you promised your kiddo. This week, I’m handing you a tiny, mighty tool called The Empowered Pause so you can protect your time like your toddler guards the last sprinkle donut.
In this pep-talk:
✔️ Why defaulting to yes bankrupts your energy account
✔️ The 3-step Empowered Pause (breathe… scan… ask) that keeps guilt in its lane
✔️ How modeling healthy limits teaches our kids that they don’t have to do it all
✔️ Real-life boundary scripts you can swipe (straight from my Boundaries Made Simple freebie)
✔️ The truth about “good moms do everything” … and why that voice needs an exit pass
💖 This Week’s Challenge: Run a “Yes Audit”
Take action: Keep the greens… renegotiate or pass off the yellows… and lovingly release at least one red by Friday. Need wording bravery? Grab a script from Boundaries Made Simple or pop into our FB community Work-Life Balance for Working Moms and let’s workshop it together.
Remember: Every intentional no is a louder yes to the life you’re building. 🚦
