Listen "Life Notes: How to Say No as a Breadwinner? "
Episode Synopsis
Being a breadwinner comes with heavy responsibilities, and learning to say "no" is essential for setting boundaries and protecting mental well-being. It's important to recognize personal limits, including financial and emotional capacity, before agreeing to requests for support. Clear, polite communication is key—expressing appreciation while declining can maintain relationships. For example, saying, "I appreciate you reaching out, but I cannot help right now," sets boundaries respectfully. Offering alternative resources can also help without compromising your own stability, fostering mutual respect.
