About this episode
This episode discusses the importance of saying no to protect your peace and priorities.
Every time you say yes to please others, you’re quietly saying no to yourself. And I get it, saying no feels uncomfortable at first. You worry what people will think, you feel guilty, you second-guess yourself. But, your most courageous yes will always begin with a no that protects your peace, your priorities and your purpose. In this week’s episode of Talking High Performance with Bel , I’m sharing how to say no with confidence, without guilt and without losing your kind heart in the process.
