Confident At Work

118. Why Asking for Help is Hard - and How to Start Doing It


Listen Later

In this episode, we dive into the common struggle of asking for help - whether at work or at home. Why do we often feel like we can't ask for support, even when we need it? We explore:


- The fear of being a burden: Why does it feel like asking for help makes us a nuisance?

- Perfectionism and self-worth: How does asking for help challenge the belief that we need to "do it all" on our own?

- The vulnerability of hearing "no": How the fear of rejection can stop us from asking


Through personal insights and thought-provoking questions, you will unpack the internal narratives that might be lurking in your brain around asking for help that make asking for help feel risky!
