The Power of Saying No with Elisabeth Andrews

Beyond the Bestseller

What if saying “no” could change your life? In this episode of Beyond the Bestseller, I sit down with Elisabeth Andrews, author of 50 Ways to Say No, to talk about the art of setting boundaries and reclaiming your time, energy, and priorities. Elisabeth shares practical tips, powerful phrases, and even a creative card deck she developed to help you say “no” with confidence and kindness.

We explore:

• Why so many women struggle with saying no and how to shift from self-sacrifice to self-preservation.
• How to recognize when you’re saying yes too often—and what to do about it.
• A game-changing mindset shift: saying no isn’t rejection, it’s redirection.
• The role journaling plays in uncovering your inner “yes” and “no” compass.

This conversation is packed with actionable insights for anyone feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands. Tune in to learn how to set boundaries and say no in a way that serves you and your bigger dreams.
