Mastering the Power of No: Sheri Matthews on Self-Care and Boundaries

No is a loving answer.
Ever feel like you’re drowning in commitments because you just can’t say no? Sheri Matthews gets it. In this eye-opening episode of 'Live Free in Recovery', Sheri dives into the art of saying no and why it’s crucial for your mental health and well-being. She opens up about her own struggles with people-pleasing and overcommitting, shedding light on how these habits can lead to burnout and resentment.
Sheri, a recovering addict and lifestyle coach, emphasizes that saying no is not only okay but a loving answer to yourself. Starting small is key, she suggests. You don’t have to decline every request right away. Begin with minor refusals and gradually work up to the bigger ones. This gives you time to reflect on your own needs and priorities.
Sheri also touches on the balance between introversion and extroversion, offering practical advice on how to navigate social expectations while prioritizing self-care. The episode is filled with relatable anecdotes and actionable tips that make the concept of setting boundaries feel less daunting. Sheri’s down-to-earth approach makes it clear that saying no isn’t about being selfish; it’s about protecting your energy and ensuring you have the capacity to show up fully in areas that truly matter to you.
So, if you’re tired of feeling stretched thin and are ready to reclaim your time and energy, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to learn how to make 'no' your new favorite word and start living a more balanced, fulfilling life.
