How to Say No (Without Guilt) Using Human Design

October 22, 20251 min read

How many times have you said yes when you meant no?

As moms and entrepreneurs, we’re constantly pulled in a thousand directions and expected to be agreeable, helpful and selfless.
And so often, we feel guilty setting boundaries - especially with our children, clients or community.

But here’s what I learned through Human Design:
Your energy is precious.
And how you say yes or no should match how
you’re designed to decide.

Start with your Authority:

Your Authority is how you’re built to make aligned decisions.

Splenic? → Instant body knowing
Emotional? → Wait through your emotional wave
Sacral? → Gut “uh huh” or “uh uh”
Ego? → Does this serve
you first?
Mental/Environment? → Talk it out, feel it in space

There’s no one right way - only your way.

You’re not here to say yes to everything.

You’re here to honour yourself.

And when you do that - you model the most beautiful kind of self-respect for your children, too.
