Renowned Therapist Reveals the Hidden Fears Behind Saying No—and Saying Yes

0 Comments

In Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, Lori Gottlieb reveals why we fear saying no—and why we fear saying yes.

“The inability to say no is largely about approval-seeking—people imagine that if they say no, they won’t be loved by others. 

The inability to say yes, however—to intimacy, a job opportunity, an alcohol program—is more about lack of trust in oneself.

Will I mess this up? Will this turn out badly? Isn’t it safer to stay where I am?
