No means no and “No,” is a complete answer. Today, our host is sharing her journey to confidently saying No to loved ones. It truly takes practice to say no in a loving way that leaves both you and the person you’re telling no feeling heard and loved. Let’s dive a bit into Tyra’s journey.

This week’s Affirmation is “I prioritize taking care of myself.”

0:05.4	We began to talk about spending time doing things we love and don't love and it made me realize
0:11.5	that I have been prone to spending time doing things that I don't particularly want to do.
0:17.0	I find myself in these situations and then I am upset, frustrated, and wish I was doing anything else but what I am doing at that moment.
0:26.8	And I also realized that at the age of 27 years old, I'm over it. When we were young, we were taught to do things because we were asked to, or told to. And I think I've been living in that belief past my childhood. So I recently said to myself,
