Do you say too many "yeses"? If so, you aren't alone. It happens to the best of us, whether because we are helpers by nature, seek recognition, or pride ourselves on doing ALL the things.

Tune into Becca's conversation with former Career Clarity Program member and successful entrepreneur Dave Kartunen to make a plan for what to say yes to and how to say no.
