🌴121. This is my toxic trait


In today's episode, I'm sharing one of my most frustrating habits: overcommitting.
I tell a recent story involving a great opportunity, a good friend, and the hard realisation that sometimes saying no is actually the smart, strategic thing to do — even when everything looks perfectly aligned.
You'll hear:
- Why I keep falling into this trap (spoiler: it's not poor planning)
- What makes some "yeses" harder than others
- A few practical tools I'm using to course-correct
- Why busyness ≠success (even if the world keeps telling us otherwise)
Got a toxic trait of your own? I’d love to hear it. Send me a voice note.
