Description
Life can be complicated AF and everyone needs support along the way…so why is it so hard to ask for it? For most of us, the tendency to keep things bottled in and not ask for help has been reinforced over time, especially in cultures that value independence and “success”. Spoiler alert: it isn’t doing us any good. On the plus side, vulnerability and asking for help are two skills that can be learned, and class is now in session! Giving and receiving emotional support is essential for us to thrive, and it’s okay to not be okay! So this week we’re getting personal about our own struggles and share some helpful tips on how we can all channel our inner Brené Brown. Join us as we chat about:Cailyn’s struggle with feeling disconnected and overwhelmedWhat holds us back from admitting when we’re not okWhy validation is so importantGoing to the right person for helpHow vulnerability strengthens connectionsBeing direct about what you needWhy admitting that you’re not okay isn’t a burden to othersLetting your friends and family show up for youEmphasizing validation over problem-solvingHow self-acceptance can free youWe hope this episode inspires you to ask for help when you need it and show up better for the people who might need you!If you’ve been toying with the idea of launching a podcast but aren’t sure where to start or how to grow, check our consulting services at teachmehowtoadult.ca/howtopodcast.
