The Guts to Say No: Setting Boundaries Without Guilt

Do you struggle to say no, even when you’re drained, overwhelmed, or just don’t want to? You’re not alone. In this week’s episode of I’ve Got Guts!, Stef and Lauren unpack what it really means to set healthy boundaries and say no without guilt…at work, with family, with friends, and even with yourself.💬 In this episode, we talk about:• Why saying no feels so hard: especially for people-pleasers and peacekeepers• How chronic illness and energy limits can make boundaries essential, not optional• The difference between boundaries and barriers• Real-life examples of saying no (and what we learned from it)• Simple scripts you can use to say no kindly but confidently• What to do when others push back against your boundaries• How saying no actually leads to more peace, joy, and authenticityBecause having the guts to say no isn’t selfish…it’s self-care. And every time you say no to something that drains you, you’re saying yes to something that nourishes you. 💛If you want even more behind-the-scenes moments, early announcements, or fun extras, make sure to join our email list here:https://balanced-brook-47113.myflodesk.com/ivegotgutspodcast.Please Make sure to follow us on our social media pages to stay up to date:www.facebook.com/ivegotgutspodcastwww.instagram.com/ivegotgutspodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@IveGotGutsPodcastListen to the Podcast Worldwide:iHeart Radiohttps://iheart.com/podcast/238278766/Apple Podcastshttps://tr.ee/SO0cSiSBvPSpotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/31w8bdwasutxCGCMhhYYh5?si=eCtax030QY-qTxqu92Sx3wAmazon Musichttps://music.amazon.it/podcasts/cd898f42-ddbf-4411-ad15-3a5c1a44d4f5/i've-got-gutsRSShttps://rss.com/podcasts/ivegotgutsDeezerhttps://deezer.com/show/1001406291Pandorahttps://www.pandora.com/podcast/ive-got-guts/PC:1001094893
