Why Saying "No" Could be the Best Way to Support Your Fertility


Listen Later

Do you ever find yourself:

- saying “yes” and then a moment later regretting it?

- wanting a particular lab done, but not pushing for it so you don’t feel “rude”?

- feeling like you “had” to go to an event, like a baby shower, so the person throwing it won’t be hurt?

 

On the surface, we think we’re doing these things because it makes us a good friend, colleague, partner, sister, etc. We’re raised to believe that putting other people’s needs ahead of our own is an admirable trait.

And it absolutely can be.

But there’s also a toxic side to people pleasing, which Dr. Neha Sangwan argues is at the root of 80% of disease.  That’s because saying "yes" when in your heart you really mean "no" has a negative effect on your body over time.

It can lead to inflammation, thyroid issues, chronic stress and other fertility disrupting ailments.

Plus, in this episode, I’ll talk about how saying yes when you mean no takes you on unnecessary detours to

your baby!

Today, we’re looking at people pleasing in a whole new way. 

We’re talking about what it is, why it can disrupt your fertility journey and, most importantly, how you can tune into yourself to stop saying yes when you actually mean no.

 

We all do it. 


But if you want to find your way to your baby, you can’t ignore the signals you’re getting from your higher self.

 

You have to learn how to stop saying yes when you mean no.

 

You have to learn how to recognize your body’s signals and respond to them.

 

This not only reduces stress and internal conflict but it also leads you to make decisions that fill you up instead of deplete you or bring you down.

 

Basically, you need to learn how to stop taking unnecessary detours on this journey and chart a course, step by step that’s aligned with what is truly best for you to bring your baby home.
