The Power of a Compassionate "No"

About this episode

In today's episode of Lean Into You, we talk with Jae Ellard, Founder and Director of Simple Intentions, a company which trains executives how to cultivate balance, stress management tactics, and conscious communication in the workplace.  In our chat, we will talk about the power of a compassionate "no". We will cover:

  1. How learning to say no starts with reassessing our values
  2. What "hedging" means
  3. How we can begin to practice saying no
  4. How saying no can actually encourage community rather than hinder it
