Summary

The "Yes" era is officially over. For years, we prioritized everyone else’s comfort over our own peace. But hitting 40 brings a certain kind of magic: the realization that "No" is a complete sentence and your time is a finite resource. This week we are talking about what happens to women after 40 that makes them start putting themselves first and stop the people pleasing. The freedom and confidence that comes when you are ready to put you first.  Thank you for listening!   www.StephanieLynLifeCoaching.com Find us on YouTube Channel: www.YouTube.com/StephanieLynCoaching 👉 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephanielyncoach 👉 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephanielyncoaching 👉 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephanielyncoaching

things and things that I never in a million years thought that I would be doing because it just

0:46.3

wasn't honestly how I thought my life was going to go I really did always feel very like

0:51.3

entrepreneurial like my whole life I remember being like seven and eight years

0:55.3

old and we would, you know, be coloring pictures actually probably even like younger than that. Me and my

cousin would be coloring pictures in the coloring book. And I said, you know what we should do? We should
