Quiet the Should’s and Shout Out the No’s

Forward To Joy

This week, Alexandra talks about how much Should’s and Supposed To’s can keep us from really being our truly authentic selves. Being caught up in what others are projecting onto us can prevent us from making decisions that are authentic. Thinking about the should’s and supposed to’s is more about the person who may be talking to us versus what is really right for us. On the other hand, saying “No” is very powerful. It’s possible to say “No” without having to provide a reason or a justification for the “No.” It is important to be honest about what really does or does not work for us and using “No” helps us be confident about what we really want or don’t want.
