Nigerian DJ DJ Cuppy, whose real name is Florence Otedola, revealed that she had a tough year last year because she didn’t say “No” enough.
She specifically mentioned regretting not saying “No” to her ex-fiance, Ryan Taylor.
During a recent event overseas, DJ Cuppy shared that she has since learned the importance of saying “No.”
She said, “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. 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.
“I was at the BBC; I had a morning breakfast show, then I was DJing, i was planning a wedding, I was in Oxford University. I burnt myself out. And none of us are either good to ourselves or other people when we burnt out. So, we have to deal with that guilt that comes with saying no. It’s okay to say no.”
It is worth noting that Cuppy and Ryan ended their relationship in July 2023, just seven months after their surprising engagement in November 2022.
