314. The Art of Saying No: Building Unshakeable Work-Life Boundaries

 
 

You need to learn how to say NO.

The most important word in your professional vocabulary isn’t “sales” or “revenue” — it’s “no.” As an entrepreneur, you probably feel a lot of pressure to do it all. But saying yes to everything isn’t the answer. If you don’t put up boundaries for yourself, you’re likely to experience burnout and not really feel like you’re doing anything well.

Building your boundary blueprint starts with setting your non-negotiables. These non-negotiable things can be as big or small as you want them to be, whether that’s a weekly bath or prioritizing a quarterly vacation. This will help you shape your boundaries and work to reduce the friction in your life.

In this episode, you will learn about:

  • How saying yes to everything can actually diminish your true value.

  • Why mastering the art of saying no is critical in today’s workplace.

  • The hidden mental and physical impacts of saying yes to everything.

  • How harnessing the power of changing your mindset can heal you.

  • Why women, more often than men, feel pressure to say yes to everything.

  • Why it’s so important to take time for yourself and what that should look like.

  • The fear that drives us to say yes when we want to say no (and what to do about it).

  • How I handled a recent situation where I felt uncomfortable saying no.

  • How responding to people consciously sets expectations and maintains boundaries.
