For years Chris and I were yes people, and for years we have watched others “yes” themselves to death. Now, we practice not just saying no to things that do not serve our greater vision and purpose but going beyond that and letting it be okay if we disappoint people by saying no. We have consistently learned from others who have beautiful boundaries to protect and who have thrived by doing so. When you say yes to everything, you water down your message. When you constantly say yes, you take yourself away from your primary vision and the message you want out in the world.

 

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

• Why you shouldn't say yes to every opportunity and should only say yes to what serves your agenda. We discuss the side effects of “yessing” yourself to death
• If you don’t get an immediate answer to a request, it doesn't mean to stop asking. We discuss how to not take it personally
• How and why it is harder for women to turn down opportunities and how women can overcome the fear of saying no
• How people react to your no is usually telling of how they will behave and show up for you down the line
• Why protecting boundaries and respecting others is so important
