do you have a “complicated” relationship with saying the word NO?


hey, tuna noodle.

are you tuckered the eff out from putting everyone else’s needs over your own?

is the only person you’re ever willing to risk letting down… yourself?

is your relationship with the word NO more complicated than your FB relationship status back in the day?

listen, there are about a bajillion + five reasons why it might feel scary, overwhelming, or damn near impossible to say NO when someone asks something of you that you don’t want to do

and depending on your past experiences, you might find that when you actually DO dare to say no, you end up stuck in your head, doubting your every decision, running through endless imagined scenarios of how this person you said no to will no longer love you, like you, or want to do business with you

learning how to BE with that discomfort enough to safely set boundaries that keep you whole + well is some of the most valuable self-care you can offer yourself

and in case you were wondering…

you don’t need to identify as a people pleaser or conflict avoider to have a tough time saying NO sometimes

i love the soft power of a proactive boundary to create space for simple NOs that won’t leave you spiraling

i’m super excited to tell you about a special workshop i’m leading next week with billie smith — my friend, client + movement teacher

it’s called:

say NO without spiraling (in three simple steps)

in it, we’ll get in touch with the gentle power of a peaceful NO, and explore a softer approach to setting strong boundaries that’s simple + sustainable

i’ll lead the workshop — it’ll include a super simple tool for saying nos that stick!

then billie will guide us through a gentle movement practice to help regulate, create peace, ground + reconnect to body through moments like these

i’m so looking forward to sharing this collaborative event with you!

hope to see you there (unless, of course, it's a NO for you lol)

hey, curly parsley. so, I went to the beach monday afternoon, because damn did i need it i’d put it off a few times already in order to do the “responsible” thing, and had figured out a plan that, in theory, would have allowed me to meet responsible needs while also tending to what would heal + soothe my soul because that’s the trick in this life, isn’t it? to find + ride that sweet spot between taking care a biz + doing what you love to not overly favor one at the expense of the other and to...

hey, crunchy peanut butter cup. you know i’m not here to explain HOW these quickie card readings manage to bring you *just* what you didn’t even know you needed that i’m not going to try to PROVE that they work or barrage you with EVIDENCE that they do that the SCIENCE, frankly, doesn’t interest me much the whole premise of intuition-driven decisionmaking is that you KNOW so much more than you give yourself credit for so much more than you ALLOW yourself to own as truth and if you’re curious,...
