Welcome back to Burnout to Brilliance! Kelly here, joined by my amazing co-host, Sarah. If you’ve ever felt stretched too thin—juggling everyone else’s demands while your own goals slip through the cracks—then this episode on The Art of Saying No is for you. We’re digging into why “no” can be the most empowering word in your vocabulary and how to say it with grace.

In This Episode, You'll Hear:

• Why saying “no” matters for those fresh goals you set at the start of the year
• Personal stories about overcoming the guilt of declining invitations and favors
• How boundaries protect your time, energy, and faith commitments
• Practical tips to deliver your “no” clearly and kindly—without over-explaining
• Ways to handle pushback from friends, family, or colleagues who want more of your time than you can give

Why It Matters Now:

We’re already a few months into 2025, and those shiny New Year’s resolutions can fade fast under the weight of extra requests and obligations. Learning to say no not only safeguards your mental and emotional health—it frees you to pour your energy into the projects and people that align with your God-given callings and personal aspirations.
