The Quickie: Why Saying “No” Can Open Up More Opportunities | Summer Rewind
Manage episode 432945508 series 2654229
Today's summer rewind is a re-release of one of our favourites that we keep coming back to. We'll be back in September with brand new interviews!
This might come as a surprise, but telling people “no” isn’t actually one of the seven deadly sins. Here’s what actually happens when you say “no” to things you don’t align with that consistently drain you: You open up all of the doors for the “HELL YES” opportunities to come flooding in!
But if you’re anything like us and tend towards people pleasing, creating boundaries can feel foreign. And that inherent desire to avoid conflict and keep the peace can often do more harm than good. That’s why we’ve committed to learning how, and when, to prioritize our own needs, so we can show up as our best selves for all the wonderful things we say yes to. Because we can’t do it all, and our time and energy are finite resources.
There's a lot of talk, and a lot to be said, for the power of Yes, but No hasn’t gotten the same star treatment and we think it’s time to change that. From increasing productivity and preventing burnout to building healthy relationships, this week we’re giving “No” the rebrand it deserves!
Join us as we chat about:
- Overcoming the need to people-please
- How to rewire your brain to make different decisions
- Our one exception for avoiding “no”
- The ways no has changed our lives and opened new doors
- How to set healthy boundaries and communicate effectively
- Tips for getting better at saying no
- The importance of honesty and vulnerability
- The 3 questions to help you make any decision
We hope this helps you harness the power of doing less shit that you don’t enjoy, so you can make space for all the stuff that’s worth it.
