198.0 Funnel & The Vessel: How to Overcome the Need to Say Yes.

Grief 2 Great Day - Christian Grief Support for Women, Questioning God in Grief, Life after Loss, Hope in Grief

SHOW NOTES

Let me start by saying that if you have healthy boundaries around your life, this episode won’t be as useful. BUT, if you are like most people and dare, I say Christian women mostly and you are one ‘yes’ away from complete exhaustion, then this episode is for you.

The title of Funnel and Vessel is from a counselor that Jeff and I were seeing, and it hit home so much that even years later, it continued to resonate. When he first shared this idea, I was like, ‘Yeah – that’s what I’m talking about’ and that acknowledgment was helpful.

I didn’t act though, I just let it sit in my head and frustrated myself when I continued to say yes to all the things I really didn’t want to say. And that is at the heart of this issue with boundaries – saying yes when you really don’t want to….

Today I’ll ask you some hard questions – questions I had to ask myself so that your life is not dictated by others; but instead – you live and breathe for an audience of one!

WORD of the Week “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10
