Summary

Courtney Carver of Be More With Less shares 10 simple ways to help you say no. Episode 1162: 10 Simple Ways to Help You Say No by Courtney Carver of Be More With Less on Self-Care Courtney Carver was stopped in her tracks with a scary MS diagnosis after decades of debt, discontent, and trying to do it all. She had to slow down, prioritize her health, and figure out what was really important in her life. She discovered what mattered most by getting rid of everything that didn’t matter at all. In the end it all came down to love and health. She went from a busy, overwhelmed advertising director to spending 2-3 hours every morning taking care of herself, loving her work, and being present and engaged with the people she loves. Her family changed, too. They moved from wanting bigger closets, nicer furniture, and more stuff to downsizing into a 750 sq. ft apartment with no storage. Courtney has written books, courses, and hundreds of articles to help you simplify your life and work so you can focus on what really matters.

1:10.8	It's important to say no so we can create more time to engage in what matters most,
1:15.6	even though we may feel bad or worried about saying no. It's still important because we need more
1:20.7	time than we think. Not only do we need time to do the usual things, but we need time to notice
1:26.0	things and to process thoughts and emotions. We need time to move through the world, present and
1:31.6	undistracted. We need time to just be. We need time to remember who we are. We can better serve
