FIM 61: Stop Saying Yes When You Want to Say No, A Lesson in Boundaries with Barb Nangle
Description
#boundaries #sayingno #codependency
Do you find yourself always saying 'yes' whenever people ask you for favors?
Do you feel guilty when you think about how you don't want to do it because you think it makes you a bad person?
Most women struggle with saying 'no', because they struggle with these feelings of guilt. Women are socialized to be people pleasers; we are taught that prioritizing ourselves is selfish, that it makes us bad people. But the truth is that when we prioritize ourselves and learn how to set boundaries without the mind drama, it benefits us and everyone around us.
This week host Amanda Haro is joined by boundaries coach Barb Nangle, who shares her journey of overcoming codependency and people pleasing and learning how to build healthy boundaries without the anxiety and drama.
They discuss:
- How prioritizing self-care is not selfish, it's actually the best thing you can do for the health of your relationship
- How to say no and how to be assertive without being a bitch
- How to communicate a boundary without attacking the other person
- How implementing boundaries frees you up to focus on the things you love doing, leading to a much happier you
