Say it with Confidence: Harness the Power of No

discover how one word can boost your self-worth in one small mini course

this mini course is my blueprint to ditch people pleasing, stop saying “yes” when you really want to say “no”, start speaking up with confidence, and building authentic relationships

so i’m guessing this might be you…

Text listing signs of emotional exhaustion, including feeling constantly drained, avoiding confrontation, worry about others' opinions, feeling invisible, inability to say no, and over-agreeing, and people pleasing.
Text image listing reasons for saying 'yes,' including feeling guilty for wanting alone time, over-volunteering, compromising in relationships, saying yes to last-minute requests, picking up after others, and feeling obligated to attend events.

what if I told you that it’s totally possible to boost your self-confidence, be assertive, say no, and stop people pleasing?

Warm relatable woman therapist and counsellor smiling while sitting on a stool, wearing a yellow striped shirt and jeans. Ready to help you with your mental health, including trauma, depression, anxiety, relationships, grief, addiction, and somatics

imagine never having to deal with this ever again…

  • the exhaustion of constantly putting others first

  • feeling trapped by guilt when you say “no”

  • dreading the moment someone asks you for something but you don’t have the energy to give

  • second-guessing yourself - no more over-analyzing every convo or walking on eggshells

  • feeling invisible in our relationships

  • pressure to always say “yes” - like you’re the only one who can handle the problem

  • pretending or masking when you don’t find something funny just to be agreeable

  • feeling drained from overcommitting

  • feeling like you have to earn others’ approval

  • feeling like you have to be everything to everybody

  • feeling like your needs come last

ever feel like you’re stuck in a “yes” trap?

You know it, that frustrating place where you say “yes” to everyone but yourself.

Saying yes to every invitation even when you want a chill night at home. Agreeing to plans you don’t want to be a part of because you don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings.

You’re the one to rearrange your schedule, sacrifice your plans and put your needs on hold to cater to your family because that’s what you do for family. And the guilt trip will be epic and never ending. Showing up as the helper when your coworkers are in a bind, no questions asked (but you can’t figure out why it doesn’t feel good).

It’s exhausting. It’s draining. It’s overwhelming.The more you do, the less appreciated and connected you feel. Like you’re losing yourself. Becoming the background character in your own life. The stress is getting to you, right?

But, here’s the thing - it doesn’t have to be this way. I’m going to show you how to show up authentically so that you can step into your fullest self-expression.

“when the fear of staying the same is greater than the fear of change, that is when we change”

Jay Shetty, award winning podcast host of ON PURPOSE, the world’s #1 mental health podcast

imagine, how different it would it be if you could…

You don’t have that sinking feeling of dread about who might ask you for a favor you can’t refuse. Instead, you’re filled with quiet confidence, knowing that you have the tools to protect your time and energy (later energy vampires).

Setting boundaries becomes second nature at home, with friends, and at work. When someone asks for something that doesn’t align with your values and priorities, you say “no” without hesitation or guilt. And the best part? They respect you for it. You’ve taught them how to treat you and it feels amaaaaaaaazing.

When it’s your turn to speak, you do it with clarity and conviction. You notice that others pay attention and respect your input because you’ve earned it by consistently showing up for yourself.

Your relationships transform. There’s more balance - they’re more fulfilling. You attract people who appreciate your assertiveness and value you for you, not just for what you can do for them.

And the next best part? You feel a profound sense of peace and purpose. You’re no longer pulled in a hundred different directions. You’re living a life that’s true to you, guided by what matters most.

The final best part (OK there’s always more best parts) is that your self-esteem starts to soar because you know that deep down, you’re worth it.

great news! You can totally do all those things!

I designed this 4-part mini-course because it’s totally possible to boost your sel-confidence, stop people pleasing & start acting assertively - literally today.

The course will level you up with assertiveness skills, confidence tools, & better boundaries built on what matters most to you so that you can show up for yourself unapologetically.

Inside you get a step-by-step roadmap that sets you up with the exact skills and tools to make real, lasting, transformative change in the name of your future self.

The relationships of your dreams (including the one with yourself) are on the other side. Assertiveness, self-esteem, and boundaries do that for ya. I’m so pumped to show you the way in this self-paced, bingeable online mini course - it’s literally my favorite thing to do!

what if I told you this is what happens when you boost your confidence, get assertive, say no respectfully, and stop people pleasing?

this could be you…

  • you feel energized and balanced because you prioritize your own well-being while still caring for others

  • you face difficult convos with confidence, expressing your needs without fear or guilt

  • you speak your mind freely, secure in knowing that your thoughts and feelings are valid

  • you say no with confidence and don’t have to deal with the pressure of always saying yes

  • you don’t have to pretend or mask to avoid conflict

and i’m a recovering people pleaser

My whole life, pleasing people made me feel good - simple as that. So I overcommitted, over-apologized, overshared, and over-analyzed non-stop to make sure others were happy.

I worked as a documentary TV producer where my job was to come up with ideas, sell them, and make the networks happy. And it wasn’t just at work - I was doing the pleasing thing in all my relationships.

But on the inside I dreaded when someone asked me for something (because I couldn’t say no, no matter what), was wracked with guilt if I did, and thought I had to be everything to everybody. I felt invisible because I never shared what I really wanted or got my needs met. My go-to was “go with the flow”.

And then I had accident and acquired a traumatic brain injury. I couldn’t do the work that I had relied on to define who I was. It was devastating. My self-esteem hinged on being nice and likeable and I couldn’t do it anymore. Who was I if I wasn’t making people happy?

I found a dreamy therapist who helped me figure it out. I tapped into my core values, got real with the icky feelings like guilt, fear, and resentment came from, learned how to be assertive, and built boundaries that stick, and harnessed the power of no.

I got aligned with what truly matters to me, went back to school in my 30s and became a therapist. Now I get to pour my heart into helping others in a way that makes me happy. I’ve been there… and I came out on the other side with self-esteem that isn’t contingent on others’ approval. It’s such beautiful place to land and I want to share it with you.

think of me as your friendly “guide-coach-pump-you-upper” who’s been where you are and knows exactly how to help you step into your most confident self - I got you!
