A gentle reminder that honoring your limits doesn't make you unkind. It makes you honest.
In this season of WorkLife, we're pairing each of our regular episodes with a companion interview to do a deeper dive into the topic. This is the deeper dive for our episode on how to say no. Linda Babcock is a professor emerita of economics at Carnegie Mellon and co-author of “The No Club,” a club of people who help each other set boundaries. Linda and Adam share some of their personal struggles and lessons with around no, discuss Linda's research on why women take on more non-promotable tasks at work, and explore novel strategies for us all to guard our time against people who don't respect it.To listen to our previous episode, "How to Say No," click here!For a chance to give your own TED Talk, fill out the Idea Search Application: ted.com/ideasearch.Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

Just Because You Say “No Offense” Doesn't Mean You're Not Offensive We've all heard it — and maybe even said it: “No offense…” before dropping a comment that's, well… offensive. In this episode, we unpack why slapping “no offense” in front of a statement doesn't make it harmless, how it's often used to dodge accountability, and why words matter more than the disclaimers we attach to them. From church small talk to political debates, we explore how this phrase shows up, the damage it can do, and how to replace it with honesty, empathy, and actual respect.
Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Creativity - Episode 429 _ How to Say NoName Signs as Clarifiers: Which Side Is He On?One common practice when interpreting a play is for t when mythological references are used the interpreter needs well needs to be able to be creative yes be creative add to avoid finger spelling and therefore breaking the meter the interpreter excuse me just a second here he interpreter to come up with a sign to signify a character - this is much faster - much faster - then finger spelling the name each time. And a name sign is also easier for a member of the death audience to see. Name signs can be introduced while the interpreter speaks with the Deaf audience a few minutes prior to the beginning of a play. This not only serves as a time to introduce the characters and helps the Deaf audience make the transition into Shakespeare's world, but gives the Deaf audience an opportunity to become accustomed to the signing style of the interpreter.An interpreter should not “overload” the Deaf audience with name signs. In many cases, a character can be referred to by their relationship or role, such as “nurse” or “servant.” If the character is on stage, the interpreter can point to that person. If the character is offstage, and is referred to again, the interpreter may establish a position on stage, “assign” the location to a character, and when he quickly points to that area, the audience knows that specific character is being mentioned. Name signs can even be used to clarify relationships between characters in a Shakespearean play. In the Blackfriars production of The Life and Death of King Richard the Third, the characters who supported the House of York had name signs on the left side of the body, while the characters who supported of the House of Lancaster had name signs on the right side of the body. That night, the Deaf individuals were perhaps the only people in the audience unfamiliar with English history who were easily able to follow the political intrigues of the play! Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
Missouri voters have repeatedly approved ballot measures — from protecting abortion rights and expanding Medicaid to raising the minimum wage and legalizing marijuana. But lawmakers haven't always honored those decisions, rolling back mandated paid sick leave and gutting a 2012 measure that gave St. Louis' mayor control of the police. GOP political consultant David Barklage explains the Republican strategy, and STLPR statehouse and politics reporter Sarah Kellogg looks at what's next for paid sick leave advocates.

Did the earliest Christians believe that salvation was permanent and irreversible? In this episode of FACTS, Stephen Boyce, with special guest Jack Bull, examines what the Apostolic Fathers actually taught about eternal security, falling away, and the necessity of perseverance in the faith.We explore key texts from the Didache, 1 Clement, 2 Clement, the Epistle of Barnabas, Ignatius of Antioch, Polycarp, and the Shepherd of Hermas—highlighting how the early Church warned believers about the real danger of apostasy and the importance of obedience, repentance, and endurance.If you've been told that the doctrine of “Once Saved, Always Saved” has historical roots, this episode may surprise you.

Today I'm talking about one of the worst habits people have—saying “I'm thinking about it.” Most of the time, we're not actually thinking. We're just stalling and making excuses for not taking action. The truth is, you don't have time to waste like that. Every day you're getting older, and you don't get those days back. In this episode, I'm giving you the fix so you can stop hiding behind that phrase and start doing what you said you would. Show Notes: [02:22]#1 Put a limit on your thinking time. [07:21]#2 Say No and Move On [15:34]#3 Adding time to situations is akin to committing suicide because you only have a certain amount of life remaining.

Please enjoy this Summertime Rewind- It's hard to say no to other people sometimes, right? And WHY is that the case, especially for women? Well.. maybe it's because if you stood up and said NO you got in trouble when you were a kid. Maybe.. you have been told by family, society, work, -that you shouldn't be too loud, talk back, disagree... And if you have a hard time saying NO I want you to know that you can learn how. But it takes some awareness of how you might be holding back. This week's podcast I describe how I've held myself back and having a lack of boundaries because pleasing other people came before pleasing myself. And when you do that you often feel discouraged, frustrated, and are hard on yourself for not saying what you actually wanted to and then at the end of the day you DRINK. Learning how to say NO AND speaking your truth and having boundaries for yourself is an art and it takes practice and awareness and the willingness to feel uncomfortable on purpose. But listen, friends, when you do... your mind and your energy will crack so wide open you will feel unstoppable, like you actually do get to choose what you want to do, and then you will DO IT. AND THEN YOU WON'T NEED TO DRINK AT THE END OF THE DAY TO SHUT OFF. And then you will start living the life you want to live on your terms. And you will ask yourself what you want first. And it's a magical, fun, happy place to be in. Tune in and learn more!

Do you feel guilty or afraid to say no—even when your body says you're at capacity? In this episode I guide Hannah through healing the fear that setting boundaries might lead to rejection or losing the connections and community she's built and grown for herself. Together we explore how people-pleasing patterns stem from the mother wound, and how to reconnect with the inner child who learned it was safer to be needed than to be authentic.A powerful episode for anyone who wants to stop spiraling after saying no and start honoring their truth with compassion.This episode is for you if:* You overthink how others might respond when you set a boundary* You've ever felt like you had to be “useful” or “helpful” to be loved* You find yourself saying yes when your body's screaming no* You're ready to stop spiraling in shame after choosing yourself
We're diving into one of the trickiest—and most talked-about—topics in modern motherhood: snacks. In this episode, we unpack the cultural obsession with constant snacking, how it impacts our kids' health (and appetites), and why we've made it a priority to rethink the way we snack in our homes. We share what's actually working in our families, how we set snack boundaries without shame, the importance of protein and fat in between meals, and why saying “no” to endless snacks isn't mean—it's loving. If you've ever felt stuck between feeding your kids something or fighting a snack battle every afternoon, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

Why are people saying no to your offer — even when it's genuinely amazing? It's not your price. It's not your funnel. And it's probably not your product. The real reason? They didn't connect with your story. Because people don't buy when you pitch… they buy when they feel. And if you're not telling your story the right way — in your webinar, your emails, your content — you're losing the sale before you ever make the offer. In this episode, I'm going to show you how to tell your story so that people are ready to buy before you ever pitch.

Like a baseball bat or a guitar designed for a purpose, we too are created to live intentionally, reflecting Christ's character in our actions and attitudes.

Setting Boundaries as a Young Lawyer: "And being able to discern what you can do, what you can't do, what you should do, and what you shouldn't do as you start practice." - Steve PalmerI'm sharing a lesson that stuck with me from right after my own law school days: a lawyer is not a bus. Troy and I dive into what that really means—why you don't have to stop for every client, why saying “no” can save your career, and how vital it is to set boundaries, especially when you're just getting started or when family and friends come calling for favors.We talk candidly about the challenges you face outside the classroom, like handling “can't you just…” requests, resisting the temptation to take every case (even for Aunt Joanne!), and balancing the desire to help with the realities of making a living. I draw from my own war stories and mistakes so you can avoid the same pitfalls—particularly around ethical responsibilities, pro bono work, and the constant pressure to do more than you should.Here are 3 key takeaways from the episode:Lawyers aren't obligated to take every case. Just because someone asks (even Aunt Joanne!) doesn't mean you have to say yes. Saying “no” — and setting healthy boundaries — is vital to avoid overcommitment and professional pitfalls.Beware of the “Can't You Just...” Trap. Clients (and family) will often push for free or heavily discounted legal help, asking, “Can't you just write a letter?” These situations rarely end well and can drain your time, energy, and resources.Pro bono is a choice, not an obligation. While giving back is important, the decision to do pro bono work should be yours. Don't let guilt or pressure dictate when, how, or for whom you volunteer your services.Moments00:00 Understanding Professional Ethics in Law04:29 Right to Decline Client Representation08:41 Learning to Say No in Law10:37 "Recognizing Problematic Client Cases"13:31 Doing God's Work vs. Paid Work16:59 "No Guarantees, Only Effort"22:25 "Lawyer's Time Is Valuable"24:58 Selective Pro Bono Participation26:45 Not My Area of ExpertiseSubmit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

We're wrapping up our re-recorded “What CAN I Eat For…” series with a topic that brings out all the mixed feelings: dessert. Whether you're the “always say yes” mom, the “no sugar ever” mom, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with honest conversation, personal stories, and practical ideas for navigating sweets in a culture that normalizes daily sugar overload. We're talking about our own dessert philosophies, how we set boundaries with our kids, what we serve in our homes, and why saying “no” to sugar doesn't have to mean saying “no” to fun. If you've ever wondered how to handle birthday parties, grocery store freebies, or post-dinner dessert expectations, this one's for you.

Billy Squier spent the '70s in New York City, playing with the rock band Piper. They toured with Kiss. Squier released his first solo album in 1980, The Tale of the Tape. “The Big Beat” got some radio airplay. All of that changed with 1981's Don't Say No. I count eight songs that were played, either on pop radio or, to a greater frequency and depth, on rock radio of the 80s. Huge album. Billy Squier had made it. One ill-conceived video stopped - mostly - his career. But Squier hung around. Made more music before eventually essentially retiring from the music business. His legacy? Complicated. We discuss. CONTACT: www.rockpopandroll.com email: rockpoprollpodcast@gmail.com
