Directors, listen up — saying no doesn’t make you mean, it makes you a leader. Too many of us spend our days exhausted, stressed, and stretched thin because we think every request has to be a “yes.”

In this episode of The Child Care Director’s Chair, Erica talks about why boundaries are your secret leadership superpower and how saying no can actually make your “yes” more powerful. You’ll learn:
✅ How to set boundaries without guilt
✅ Why saying no helps your team grow
✅ How to protect your time and energy
✅ Tips to communicate limits clearly with staff and families
✅ How standing your ground earns respect and builds culture

It’s time to stop people-pleasing and start leading with strength, clarity, and confidence.
