Permission to Say No: Letting Go of the Yes-Person Identity

09 Jun 2025

Description

In this week's episode of the podcast, I’m talking to all the go-to women—the yes people—the ones who hold it all together. But what if being a “yes person” is the very thing burning you out?In this episode, I’m challenging the idea that always saying yes is what makes you successful. I’ll help you untangle your identity from your availability, redefine what balance really looks like, and show you how saying no more often can actually increase your impact. If you’ve ever felt trapped by your own reliability, this one’s for you.  Topics in this episode:What it really means to be a yes person—and why it might be sabotaging your success How to shift from being available to being reliable (and why that difference matters) The four essential priorities of a balanced life—and which ones yes people often neglect Why saying no is a form of leadership and not a threat to your success Reflective journaling prompts to help you define your new version of success Show Notes & References:You can watch this episode on YouTube!
