#40 In this highly requested episode we get into the pressure to say ‘yes’ to every social occasion and opportunity which comes our way. We start by talking about where this pressure might come from and how we can change our mindset around it to give ourselves full permission to say ‘no’. I explain why I believe so deeply in being selective with what I say ‘yes’ to, and the importance of not comparing our choices to what other people are choosing to do. We then get into the magic of listening to our gut instinct and how it can help guide us. I share some things I’ve been welcoming into life lately: owning my decisions even if they don’t make sense to others, saying ‘no’ without providing an explanation/justification to other people or (crucially!) ourselves, and not saying ‘yes’ out of people-pleasing tendencies.
