You 2.0: How To Say No
About this episode
<p>Saying no to someone who asks for something is often easier said than done. Maybe it's a boss who wants you to take on a new assignment. Or your kid's teacher, seeking volunteers for a field trip. Or a friend who asks you to lend her money. How should we respond to these demands on our time, energy, and resources? This week, psychologist <a href="https://www.bauer.uh.edu/vpatrick/">Vanessa Patrick</a> explores why it's so hard to say no, and how we can set boundaries that will make it easier to do so. </p><p><i>If you haven't yet caught the first two episodes in this year's You 2.0 series, you can find them in this podcast feed, or on our website: </i></p><p><a href="https://hiddenbrain.org/podcast/you-2-0-the-gift-of-other-people/"><i>You 2.0: The Gift of Other People</i></a></p><p><a href="https://hiddenbrain.org/podcast/taking-control-of-your-time/"><i>You 2.0: Taking Control of Your Time </i></a></p><p><i>Thanks for listening! </i></p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
