Say “No” Without Guilt

You’re exhausted. Not just physically — emotionally, energetically, soul-deep worn out from saying ‘yes’ when you meant ‘no’. You overextend, overgive, and override your own needs to avoid disappointing others. And even when you do say no, it comes with a side of shame, over-explaining, and internal chaos.

This coaching path is for you if “people-pleasing” isn’t just a habit — it’s a survival strategy you’re ready to unlearn. We’ll work together to rewire the fear that saying no = rejection, abandonment, or failure. You’ll learn to feel your limits clearly, express them cleanly, and honor them without spiraling afterward.

Because saying ‘no’ isn’t selfish — it’s sacred. (And it gets a whole lot easier when your nervous system isn’t screaming.)

Here’s how we’ll do it…

  • Session 1:

    Rewrite the Present

    Choose a real-life situation where you want to say ‘no’ but feel anxious about it. We’ll use coaching and parts work to bring ease to the moment — and help you practice what “no” feels like in your body.

  • Session 2:

    Rewrite the Past

    Revisit a moment when you said ‘yes’ and betrayed yourself. Through memory re-consolidation and/or somatic parts work, we’ll shift the emotional charge and create safety around saying what you really meant.

  • Session 3:

    Rescue the Inner Yes-Person

    Meet the younger you who learned it wasn’t okay to say ‘no’. Offer them what they needed, reconnect with your inner protector, and update the old programming that kept you compliant and disconnected.

  • Session 4:

    Say ‘Yes’ to Something Better

    Explore what you’re really saying ‘yes’ to when you say ‘no’ — rest, alignment, integrity, pleasure. We’ll use future self visioning, Wise Advocate work, or goal repetition to help you anchor into that truth.

I want in!
