Speaking at a function abroad, DJ Cuppy shared her newfound realization about the importance of setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care. She expressed regret over not asserting herself and recognizing when to decline commitments that were detrimental to her well-being. Reflecting on the whirlwind of events that unfolded, including her engagement to Ryan Taylor, DJ Cuppy acknowledged the toll it took on her mental and emotional health.

“One of the things I have learned is saying no. I had one of the worst years of my life last year because I couldn’t say no,” DJ Cuppy confessed. “I didn’t say no to opportunities that I should have said no to. I didn’t say no to a fiancé I should’ve said no to. I didn’t say no to taking things on.”

The DJ recounted her hectic schedule, which included juggling multiple commitments such as hosting a morning breakfast show at the BBC, DJing gigs, planning a wedding, and pursuing studies at Oxford University. In her relentless pursuit of success and fulfillment, DJ Cuppy admitted to overextending herself and neglecting her own needs, ultimately leading to burnout.

Her candid admission serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of self-care and setting boundaries. DJ Cuppy’s experience highlights the detrimental effects of saying “yes” indiscriminately, emphasizing the need to prioritize one’s mental and emotional well-being above external pressures and expectations.

As DJ Cuppy continues her journey of self-discovery and growth, her story serves as a beacon of hope and inspiration for others navigating similar challenges. Learning to say “no” may be a simple concept, but its profound impact on our lives cannot be overstated. DJ Cuppy’s courage in sharing her vulnerabilities reminds us all of the power of authenticity and the transformative potential of embracing our truths, even when they are difficult to confront.
