95 \\ Every ‘Yes’ Is Also a ‘No’: How to Make Decisions Wisely without Guilt

Update: 2025-09-16

Description

Saying “yes” can feel like the easier option, but every "yes" is also a "no" to something else.

In this episode of A Fresh Start, we explore how to make choices without guilt, align your "yes" with your true values, and protect your time and energy in the process.

If you’ve ever struggled with overcommitting, people-pleasing, or feeling guilty for saying "no," this conversation will help you pause and reflect on what you actually want to prioritize. You’ll learn simple ways to shift from reactive decisions to intentional ones, so that your "yes" becomes powerful and purposeful.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why every "yes" automatically becomes a "no" to something else

How to release guilt around saying "no"

Ways to align your decisions with your values and goals

A healthier framework for boundaries and commitments

Something to think about: Where in your life do you need to start saying "no" so your "yes" can mean more?
