Description

In this solo episode of HER Extraordinary LIFE By Design, host Leslie Gaudet, Self-Care Strategist and creator of The YES Reset Method™, answers the very questions women are asking out loud about saying no — the ones that keep you awake at night replaying conversations in your head.


Leslie takes you inside four of the most common fears about saying no: sounding selfish, feeling guilty afterward, making more work for someone else, or letting people down. Through lived examples, compassionate reframes, and practical scripts you can start using right away, she shows why “no” has never been the real problem — it’s the guilt you’ve been taught to carry with it.


If you’ve ever swallowed a no to keep the peace, or said yes only to feel drained, resentful, and second-guessing yourself afterward, this episode will give you the clarity, language, and confidence to protect your peace without guilt — and without losing the connections that matter most.
