Do you ever find yourself saying "yes" to every request, project, or favor that comes your way? 

As accountants, we're known for being reliable and dependable, but this can sometimes lead us down a path of overwhelm and burnout.

That's why I want to dive into why it's so hard for us to say no and what the consequences are when we don't set healthy boundaries. 

When we're always the go-to person, it can feel like we're being helpful, but the truth is, it's not sustainable in the long run. 

You can't be at your best if you're running on empty.

In this episode I'll be introducing you to a simple yet powerful approach to pushing back without conflict. This method helps you protect your time while still maintaining your reputation for reliability and professionalism.

In this episode, I discuss:

 

✅ The Consequences of Always Saying Yes ✅ Your Brain's Role in Pushing Back ✅ The Best Method for Pushing Back ✅ Practical Examples Using The Method ✅ Becoming a Smarter Accountant: Pushing Back With The "Yes...AND..." Method ✅ Key Takeaway And Action Item
