On this episode of The Thinking Like a Boss Podcast, we are continuing the series where Kate takes us chapter by chapter of her book, Thinking Like a Boss: Uncover and Overcome the Lies Holding You Back from Success. Kate will read an excerpt and then lead a candid conversation with you about the topic. 


In this episode, Kate covers the lie that we need to say yes to every opportunity that comes our way. She shares about the effects of FOMO, really understanding our own needs and desires, and making sure that we don’t overcross or overstep our own boundaries.


Here’s the truth: saying yes to everything does not make you super woman, a better friend, family member, or more serious business owner. Giving into the pressure to say yes to everything dilutes your effectiveness.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 

  • The effects of FOMO and how it can lead us to make the wrong decision

  • The importance of keeping our own boundaries.

  • What happens when you give into the pressure to say yes to everything


Words of Wisdom: 

-- We say yes to something good, but we ultimately miss out on something great and better aligned for our situation.

-- Giving into the pressure to say yes to everything only dilutes your effectiveness.

-- Your intuition should be your deciding factor.

-- If an opportunity is for you, it will find you again in the future.
