Decision fatigue is REAL, and there are times when I simply cannot make ONE. MORE. DECISION.<\/p>\n

Should I say yes?
\nWhy am I saying no?
\nAm I reacting or responding?
\nDoes it REALLY even matter?<\/p>\n

I really, really, really love to say yes. Seriously, being a #yesmom is ridiculously fun. But If I’m not considering my own needs, saying yes can result in me being a jerk.<\/p>\n

So after experiencing some serious overwhelm, I decided to create a visual support for myself. My hope was this would help me maintain my relational goals even when I’m overwhelmed: support my teen’s needs and her autonomy, while also considering my own needs at the same time.<\/p>\n

So here goes…<\/p>\n

ONE: Will this make me feel resentful? If so, I can be honest with my teen and offer and\/or discuss some alternatives. (You might be surprised – they might come up with something helpful!) If not, go to 2.<\/p>\n

TWO: Is it dangerous? If so, talk with them about how to be safe or collaborate on an alternative. If not, go to 3.<\/p>\n

THREE: Is there a limit in time or resources? If so, let them know, and collaborate on an alternative. If not, SAY YES!<\/p>\n

What do you do when you are overwhelmed by decisions and trying to prioritize the relationship, rather than saying no from a place of reactivity?<\/p>\n

If you need more support, I offer therapeutic parent education and coaching classes, on-demand workshops, and counseling services. Learn more on the website menu.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
