Listen "16 - Hate Saying No? How to Cure Your Vitamin N Deficiency"
Episode Synopsis
After a previous episode about clear communication, it has popped up in so many amazing and inspiring conversations that many of us feel uncomfortable saying no. But I am here to tell you that we have to get better. As women, it is so common for us to say yes when we really want to say no and I have been down that road many times. Throughout my journey, I have become much better about saying no and being honest. I have always been a direct person, but I have also been a people-pleaser and it has put me in some situations that do not reflect my wants and needs. We all have an inner voice and an inner compass, but are we listening to it? In today’s episode, I am laying out some real examples that you can probably relate to. And as always, I have some actionable steps to take to start using your vulnerability to practice saying no. While uncomfortable at first, this muscle needs strengthening and once you’ve strengthened it, you can finally be you.
