She healed her own hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, and reproductive health conditions naturally, despite the odds and lack of evidence.

So many of us are living under the weight of the implicit yes: agreeing without words, showing up when we're depleted, saying yes with our actions even when our hearts are screaming no. It feels easier in the moment, but over time it leads to exhaustion, quiet resentment, and a sense that you've abandoned yourself.In this video, we'll explore why the implicit yes keeps you stuck, how it drains your energy, and why boundaries are not just optional; they're essential. Boundaries are the doorway to freedom, self-respect, and peace. When you learn to say no from a grounded place, you create space to finally live in alignment with what matters most.✨ Sacred Boundaries: Scripts for Saying No with Love ✨If you've ever felt the pressure to say “yes” when your whole body was begging you to say “no,” you're not alone. So many high-achieving, heart-centered women struggle with guilt, fear of disappointing others, or worry that boundaries will push people away.But the truth is: boundaries don't break relationships—they strengthen them.

Whether it's people-pleasing, overcommitting, or struggling to set clear boundaries, Michael breaks down why learning to say no is essential for emotional mastery, self-respect, and personal development.You'll learn how direct communication strengthens relationships, how to recognize your limits, and why saying yes to yourself sometimes starts with a powerful no.Key Takeaways ✅ “No” is a tool for growth, clarity, and boundary setting. ✅ Healthy boundaries prevent emotional burnout and resentment. ✅ You can't grow if you don't know your limits. ✅ Saying no strengthens your confidence and identity. ✅ Direct communication builds more authentic relationships. ✅ Self-compassion is essential when enforcing your limits. ✅ The ability to say no reflects high emotional intelligence. ✅ Balance is key—say no to others so you can say yes to yourself. ✅ Confidence grows when you stop apologizing for your needs. ✅ Personal growth starts with protecting your energy.

This Sunday we will continue our journey through 1 Peter and look at what it means to suffer for doing what is right. Peter tells us that when we experience rejection, criticism, or even ridicule because of our faith, it is not a sign of weakness but rather evidence that we've made a clean break with sin. Christ Himself suffered in the body to accomplish God's will, and we are called to arm ourselves with that same attitude. Suffering in the Christian life is not wasted; it shows our loyalty to Christ and our willingness to live for God's will rather than for human approval. We'll see how Peter points back to our old way of life and reminds us that enough time has been wasted there. When we say “no” to the patterns of the world and instead say “yes” to God, people will notice. Some may misunderstand us, label us, or even mock us, but Peter lifts our eyes to the greater reality: God is the ultimate judge, not people. Their disapproval may sting in the moment, but His approval is eternal. Death itself cannot cancel the hope we have in the gospel, for even those who have gone before us in Christ are alive with Him forever. This passage is both sobering and deeply encouraging. It reminds us that following Jesus will cost us something in this world, but it also assures us that our suffering has purpose and our hope is secure. As we gather this Sunday, we'll be encouraged to live boldly, even when it's costly, knowing that we are anchored in Christ. I hope you'll join us, and I pray this message strengthens your resolve to live for the will of God with courage, joy, and hope!

Jesus said no—without guilt, shame, or apology. He didn't take on what wasn't his to carry, and we are invited to do the same. This episode is an invitation to set boundaries, release people-pleasing, and focus your energy on what you're truly here to do. Saying no isn't selfish—it's sacred.

Key Takeaways: Watch important financial ratios: Pay attention to numbers like your cash-to-debt ratio and how long it takes customers to pay, since they show how healthy your cash flow is. Use a 16-week cash flow plan: This helps business owners focus on the areas that bring in the most profit. Avoid unprofitable paths: Say no to money-losing opportunities and strengthen existing relationships to keep finances strong. Stay disciplined after hard times: Using lessons learned during downturns helps build long-term success when revenues grow again. Plan big purchases carefully: Good financial planning makes it easier to buy major items, like a luxury car, with confidence.

Ever been handed “one more thing” and wondered whether pushing back would help you or haunt you? We dig into the real art of saying no at work—how to protect your bandwidth without damaging trust, and how to turn tense requests into clear decisions that move the right work forward. Along the way, we share the exact phrases that keep conversations calm, the questions that reveal hidden context, and the negotiation steps that map tradeoffs without sounding defensive.We start by separating core responsibilities from additive requests and unpack why that distinction changes your next move. If the work is core, we talk about ownership and execution; if it's additive, we show you how to probe for intent—stretch assignment, urgent fire drill, or visibility play—so you can assess risk and reward. Then we dive into tone and power dynamics: with a boss, ask permission before offering alternatives; with peers, redirect or delay while still being helpful; with direct reports, be clear and candid so they can succeed. You'll hear simple scripts like “Help me understand why this, why now, and why us,” “Where does this fit among A, B, and C?,” and “If we prioritize this, X slips two weeks—acceptable?”Expect practical tools you can use today: a fast mental checklist for on‑the‑spot decisions, ways to avoid over‑questioning that sounds like stonewalling, and a framework to document impacts so leaders can make informed calls. We also cover when a firm refusal is non‑negotiable—anything illegal, unethical, or harmful—and how to do that with professionalism. By the end, you'll be able to choose among no, not yet, yes if, and yes—and know why each choice fits the moment.

In this episode of The Other 99%, Lisa and Susan sit down with returning guest Melissa Thury, founder of Balance in Business with Melissa. Melissa shares her journey from healthcare administration and direct sales to becoming a business coach for women entrepreneurs. She opens up about learning to set boundaries, the importance of saying no, and how systems and intentional time management can create balance in both business and life.Key Points: Balance over perfection: Balance doesn't mean equal time, it means the right time in the right season.Systems matter: A good website, email marketing, and CRM are stronger growth drivers than social media alone. Boundaries are non-negotiable: Saying no creates space for what truly matters. Direct sales reality check: Success requires intentional planning, not just working in “pockets of time.” Personal values guide business: Filter decisions and opportunities through what actually matters to you, not what's “supposed” to matter.Memorial Quotes: “Balance doesn't mean equal. It means your work and family get the time they need in that season.” – Melissa Thury, “Direct sellers need to stop thinking of themselves as hobbyists. You are your own brand and you need a plan.” – Melissa Thury, “No is an answer all by itself. It's freeing to say no when you don't want to, instead of showing up to something you never wanted to be at.” – Melissa Thury#DirectSales #ConferenceHigh #BusinessGrowth #TheOther99%Podcast Find Melissa on Facebook | bbwithmelissa.comBook a Discovery Call with MelissaThank you for tuning in to The Other 99%.

Saying no is rarely easy — especially when the opportunity is something you really want to say yes to. In this episode, I share a personal example of when I turned down a big media opportunity that landed right in the middle of my family's annual Colorado trip. On paper, I was technically available. My husband could've watched the kids, my calendar was clear, and the opportunity would've been great for my business. But in practice? Saying yes would have derailed my ability to truly unplug, be present with my family, and recharge. In this episode, I walk you through: The ripple effects of saying yes — from prep time and tech checks to energy recovery afterward. Why the pause is the most powerful tool when you're tempted to say yes too quickly. How to evaluate the true cost of opportunities beyond the calendar block they appear to take. The difference between scarcity thinking (“this may never come again”) and embracing a more abundance mindset (even if a little woo). Why protecting vacation time, family time, and rest can sometimes matter more than visibility opportunities. How saying no doesn't just protect you — it also builds strength, clarity, and integrity. I also share how I reframed the “no” by connecting the opportunity with another woman in my field. It reminded me that collaboration, generosity, and boundaries can all exist together. If you ever feel guilty or second-guess yourself when saying no — especially to exciting opportunities — this episode might help you see the full picture and feel more confident in your decision-making.
