As entrepreneurs, we often believe that saying “yes” to every opportunity, client, or event is the key to growth. But what if those yeses are silently draining your finances, your energy, and your joy?
In this episode of Your Business on Purpose Podcast, Dawnette Palmore exposes the hidden costs of overcommitment—from underpricing your services and working with draining clients, to losing sleep, facing burnout, and missing out on the opportunities that truly matter.
You’ll learn:
Why saying yes to everything leads to financial leaks, emotional overwhelm, and strained relationships.
Practical strategies to create a “yes filter,” set healthy boundaries, and say no with confidence—protecting your bigger yes: your health, family, clarity, and financial stability.
Action Steps: Simple scripts you can use to decline gracefully, how to align opportunities with your values and goals, and ways to reframe “no” as an act of empowerment.
If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, resentful, or stuck in cycles of burnout, this episode will show you how to reclaim your time, energy, and financial clarity—without guilt.
Because every “no” is really a powerful “yes” to the life and business you want most.
