Is it hard for you to say no? Do you have challenges identifying and articulating your needs and boundaries? Are you afraid to voice your true feelings and concerns with significant others and colleagues either because you feel guilt and shame for taking the space or because the people in your life will guilt and shame you for your requests? Do you usually put yourself last because you do not want to upset those around you? Good News: It is not your fault and you have the power to change it.
I worked for many years in consulting with private business owners in crisis with their staff before switching careers and have mastered the art of assertive communication and negotiation. I teach individuals, families, couples, groups how to say no without guilt, shame, anxiety or losing sleep.
Although saying no, meaning it, and sticking to your boundaries can seem, initially, absolutely terrifying, especially when you imagine all of the hard work and discomfort involved, but, what is the alternative? A life where you make make others "happy with you" while you suffer. No! Start saying no. You will be better for it.
