That’s a Hard No is a podcast about saying no and setting boundaries – without feeling fear, guilt, or FOMO.

The Life Changing Power of Self-Worth
Mint Miller, host of BetterMint, a podcast meant to be a survival guide by allowing her stories, experiences and healing to help others recognize their own self-worth.
Through much lived experience, Mint used what she learned and began to set boundaries that changed the narrative of her life and allowed her to step into who she really is and the person she knows she was meant to be. Mint feels that her practice of setting limits and boundaries has made such a profound positive impact on her life that she wants others to learn this practice and experience the same positivity and balance in theirs. She works with successful “go-to” women by coaching them through her “3 Yes Boundary Method” to help them identify what they value most in their lives, so they can say YES to what is most important to them and have the confidence to say no to what does not align. This approach also helps women understand their own value and that their worth can be driven by happiness and purpose, not just by performance or the opinion of other people.
Key Takeaways
[00:03:52] Boundaries and self-healing journey
[00:05:19] Self-worth and boundary work
[00:12:01] Creating space for self care
[00:14:29] The three boundaries method
