🎙 Episode 14: FOMO vs JOMO – The Freedom of Saying No (and Actually Enjoying It)
We’ve all felt it—that little pang of “What if I’m missing out?” But what if the real win is actually in saying no? In this episode, we’re talking about the freedom that comes with JOMO—the joy of missing out—and why choosing yourself doesn’t mean you’re losing out.
We’re unpacking: ✨ The sneaky guilt that makes us say yes when we don’t want to ✨ How to shift from FOMO panic to JOMO peace ✨ Real-life moments where saying no felt like the best decision ever ✨ Why rest, quiet, and sweatpants might actually be underrated magic
If you’ve ever struggled with boundaries or felt pressure to “keep up,” this one’s for you. Because sometimes the best way to show up… is by not showing up at all.
