Saying No without guilt

from wellbeing4mothers · host Dr Dunni

In this episode of the Wellbeing 4 Mothers show, Dr. Dunni explores the complex emotions of guilt that many mothers experience, particularly in relation to saying yes to demands from work, family, and friends. She discusses the importance of learning to say no without guilt, emphasising that it is an act of self-love rather than selfishness. The episode provides practical strategies for setting boundaries, reframing the concept of no, and creating a 'not now' list to help mothers prioritise their well-being. Dr. Dunni encourages mothers to recognise the costs associated with always saying yes and to seek support when feeling overwhelmed.Key Takeaways- Guilt is a common emotion among mothers.- Saying yes often comes at a significant cost.- Mothers often feel pressured to be the nurturer.- A 'not now' list can help manage commitments.- Saying no does not equate to letting others down.- Seeking help is crucial when feeling overwhelmed.Book Recommendation The Joy of Missing Out – Tonya DaltonJoin the Bookclubhttps://www.drdunni.clubCONNECT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Ig- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/drdunni.lifecoach/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9C1oJwHyISEuqiX8USaYKg⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CH- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.clubhouse.com/@drdunni-druwa⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FB- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/druwaacademy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/drdunni⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://patreon.com/wellbeing4mothers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HOST BIOYour host, Dr Dunni, is the award-winning mum empowerment coach, Family doctor, International speaker, Best-selling author of the book ‘Every Mum is a Super Mum’ and a mum herself who is passionate about health and wellbeing.
