I encourage you to say no.... a lot :-)
I have a wild idea: how's about you ONLY do things you want to do.
It's not how we were raised. We were raised to be good, to be nice, to be helpful... and to do a lot of stuff even if we didn't want to do it.
Now as fully formed humans, we have a choice. And if you don't feel like you have a choice, that's where we start our work.
When we ONLY do things we want to do, we show up in our relationships in a truly honest, transparent, trustworthy way. It makes it easier for people to believe that we're telling the truth. It makes our relationships richer and a hella lot more fun.
Listen in to hear to my reflections on becoming a person that ONLY does things she wants to do.
