Saying “no” is self advocacy. Dr. Jen Fry teaches you how to do it

Calling all recovering people pleasers! Saying “no” can do wonders for your mental and physical wellness. Dr. Jen Fry is a speaker, conflict literacy expert and author who demystifies how to have hard conversations and why they build healthier cultures. Jen discusses how fear of “making a scene” and people-pleasing, especially for women, can lead to harmful situations, resentment and even physical stress, and why saying no is about self respect. Jen emphasizes building tolerance through “micro-advocacy” in everyday moments, giving people a chance to fix issues and accepting others’ disappointment or anger.
