Saying "yes" can open us up to new possibilities, shift our perspective, and help us find humour and creativity in challenging situations. It’s all about being open to experiences, being curious, and embracing a mindset of possibility. By saying "yes" to ourselves and being willing to explore new opportunities, we can discover our upper limit behaviours and break through self-sabotage.

In this episode, Anya and Mark explore the relationship between saying yes to oneself and saying yes to others, as well as the role of humour and shifting perspectives in finding the funny and possibilities in challenging situations.

Three prompts

1. What are you not saying ‘yes’ to in yourself?
2. What stops you from saying ‘yes’ to others?
3. Are you listening to the Universe?
