The Art of Saying No: Boundaries Without Guilt

Do you say yes when you really want to say no?
About this Event

Maybe you agree to help even when you're exhausted. You take on more than you have time for. You worry about disappointing people, upsetting someone, or being seen as selfish.

And even when you finally say no, the guilt can make you question your decision.

Sound familiar?

Join Leah M. Hill for an empowering, interactive workshop about setting healthy personal boundaries, recognizing your own needs, and learning to say no without carrying the guilt afterward.

Setting boundaries doesn't mean you stop caring about others. It means learning how to care about yourself, too.


What We'll Explore
  • Why Saying No Feels So Difficult: Explore people-pleasing habits, expectations, and the fear of disappointing others.
  • Recognizing Your Limits: Become more aware of when your time, energy, or emotional resources are being stretched too thin.
  • Understanding Guilt: Explore the uncomfortable feelings that can arise when you begin making different choices.
  • Finding Your Voice: Practice simple, respectful ways to communicate your needs and boundaries.
  • Saying Yes to Yourself: Discover how setting limits can create more room for what genuinely matters to you.

Through guided reflection, group conversation, practical exercises, and real-life examples, you'll have an opportunity to examine the situations where boundaries feel most challenging.


You'll Leave With
  • Greater awareness of your personal boundaries
  • Practical language for responding to requests
  • A better understanding of your people-pleasing patterns
  • One boundary you feel ready to begin practicing

You don't need to become a different person, be confrontational, or stop being kind.

You can be compassionate, generous, and caring while still having boundaries.

If you're ready to stop automatically saying yes to everyone else and start making more intentional choices for yourself, this workshop is for you.
