Being Nice Is Draining You.
Nobody wants to talk about this.
But I will.
People pleasing is a slow leak.
Drip by drip, your energy drains.
NO is a full sentence.
Not rude.
Not selfish.
Not mean.
It’s kinder than a fake yes.
No, you don’t need another catch-up call.
No, you don’t have to text back at 10pm.
No, you don’t need to take on that project just to prove you’re a team player.
You don’t owe anyone an explanation.
You don’t need to be sorry.
You don’t have to earn your rest.
Setting boundaries isn’t betrayal.
Saying NO won’t make you the bad guy.
It’ll make you honest.
Start small.
Start now.
You’re not the only one.
Stick around. We’re just getting started.
✨Pass it on
If this sparked something, send it to someone else.

No fluff. No filler. Just a shift a day. Learn more.
Just NO. Something about that "no, you don't need another catch-up call" landed. Great reminders!
Right on, Cara! Thank you for this great series!
