- Understanding that it’s okay to step back and let others take the lead
You'll also learn how to say no without guilt, offering simple yet firm responses that help you protect your time and nurture your passions. Remember, self-care isn’t just about rest—it's about honoring your needs and saying yes to what makes you feel alive.
