You Can't Say No Without Explaining? Here's Why

Fri Feb 06 2026

Listen

Many people struggle to say no without over-explaining — not because they lack communication skills, but because part of them feels unsafe being misunderstood. In this episode, Simon explores the deeper emotional pattern behind over-explaining and how meeting the underlying feeling with presence and compassion naturally leads to clearer boundaries and greater self-trust. If this resonates, you can book a coaching consultation here: https://calendly.com/simon-wgw/simon-mundie-intro-call You can watch this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HZpyxkwHVs For a gift of 30 free meditation sessions on Henry Shukman's meditation app 'The Way' - click here: https://the-way.app.link/simon For more information on The Way head here: http://thewayapp.com/simon Hosted on Acast.
