Saying Yes Until It Hurts: The Cost of Being Too Accommodating | Ep128

from Wholehearted Loving · host Georgianna Lee + Stephanie Hunter

In this episode, Georgianna and Steph unpack the subtle but costly ways we say yes when we shouldn’t — and how it erodes our capacity, clarity, and connection. From Georgianna’s moment of losing it on her family over a small request, to Steph’s story of the “final yes” that sent her spiraling, they get honest about the slippery slope of over-giving.They share what it takes to reclaim your inner “no,” how to recognize resentment as a signal of self-abandonment, and why staying honest about your true limits is an act of love — not just for others, but for yourself. This episode is full of personal stories, gentle humor, and deeply practical tools to help you build boundaries that feel both kind and clear.✨ Learn how to notice when your yesses come at your own expense✨ Practice saying no without guilt or explanation✨ Build a relationship of trust where your yes actually means yes"Like finding gold." - Alma W."The best therapy I've ever done for myself." - Sanjeev B.Join our monthly membership for LIVE calls & practice:http://bit.ly/4eF86reGet our Self-Compassionate Body-Based Toolkit:https://bit.ly/40Vnz3bEvery episode begins and ends with a body-based self-connection practice, so you can grow your capacity to be with all that life brings.
