And saying yes to everybody is not helping your relationships. And I would suggest everyone go get that and read it.
Picture this: You're constantly saying yes to everyone and everything, only to find yourself overwhelmed and burnt out. Sounds familiar? In this episode of The Motyv Podcast, Shayden J. Bertagnolli tackles the tricky subject of saying no. He dives deep into why many of us struggle with it and offers practical advice on how to become more assertive in prioritizing our own needs.
Shayden, a seasoned therapist, knows firsthand how the inability to say no can lead to anxiety and burnout. He shares his personal experiences, admitting that he's often a 'fire ready aim' kind of person, which means he sometimes agrees to things without fully considering his own needs. This behavior can quickly spiral into stress and overwhelm. One key theme in this episode is understanding what you truly want in life.
Shayden emphasizes that saying no becomes easier when you have a clear grasp of your desires and priorities. It's not just about rejecting requests; it's about making choices that align with your values and goals. Shayden also highlights the pitfalls of people-pleasing. Constantly seeking approval and saying yes to everything can lead to losing sight of your own needs and worshiping others' opinions.
This is especially challenging for parents who feel pressured to say yes to every opportunity for their children, often at the expense of their own well-being. To help listeners navigate these challenges, Shayden offers actionable tips for establishing boundaries and finding empowerment through saying no. He recommends the book 'Essentialism', which focuses on the art of doing less and prioritizing what truly matters.
By setting clear boundaries with yourself and others, you can feel more confident and in control when saying no. So, if you're tired of feeling overwhelmed and ready to take charge of your life, tune in to this episode. Shayden's insights will help you understand the struggle of saying no and teach you how to focus on what truly matters, ultimately improving your relationships and reducing anxiety.
