Listen "The Guilt of Saying "No""
Episode Synopsis
Saying “no” should be simple, but for many of us living with invisible disabilities, it comes with a heavy weight of guilt. Whether it’s turning down social plans, declining extra work, or even saying no to family, that one word can leave us feeling like we’ve let everyone down.In this episode, I’m talking about why saying no is so hard, how guilt shows up in our lives, and why setting boundaries isn’t selfish — it’s survival. I’ll share the ways we can begin to shift our perspective on rest, learn to protect our energy, and remind ourselves that our health has to come first.If you’ve ever struggled with the guilt of saying no, this conversation is for you.Connect with me:Facebook: www.facebook.com/walkingwithheatherTikTok: www.tiktok.com/@walkingwithheatherPatreon: www.patreon.com/walkingwithheather
