How to Say No and Stop Trying to Do It All

Get Carried Away

In today's episode of Get Carried Away, join Carrie Murray and Sarah Peck as they dive deep into how CEO-Moms fight the 'do-it-all' mindset.

As the CEO and founder of Startup Parent, Sarah explains how saying "no" becomes a superpower, why asking help gets you further, how she figured out how to do less of everything, and what women can expect from the Wise Women's Council this 2022.

In this episode you will learn:

·        When not to make promises

·        What the Wise Women's Council (WWC) is about

·        Do it all < Do it with

·        Advice is like a blanket

·        Why you need to put yourself in a room with people like you
