Ever struggle with saying “no”? This episode of the Mindfulness Matrix Podcast dives into the complexities of setting boundaries and living authentically. Mykee and Isaac unpack the fears and societal pressures that make saying “no” so difficult—and reveal how reclaiming this small but powerful word can transform your life.
They discuss how early life experiences influence our views on boundaries, and how mastering the art of “no” helps us protect our time, energy, and mental well-being. Isaac reflects on a game-changing coaching session that redefined his relationship with his to-do list, while Mykee shares insights on how prioritizing self-respect over people-pleasing leads to greater fulfillment.
