Listen Later

"We've made a social contract to come into this organization, however, contracts can be broken. Whichever direction it gets broken, we have to take the responsibility and either take care of ourselves and get out of it, or help fix it. There's really very little in between, and we're not supposed to see how much crap we can take." - Andrea Goeglein

Asking for help, especially in the workplace, often feels like we're waving a neon sign of weakness. However, today's expert guest -- who literally wrote the book on being brave regarding asking for help -- explains how asking for the right kind of assistance is essential to reducing stress, positively impacting our results and building a foundation for strong relationships.

Dr. Andrea Goeglein has a fascinating personal and professional story, complete with important and powerful lessons learned, starting with what she realized after altering the truth of her age (of 14) to land a job at a Wall Street brokerage firm. By 24, she opened her first operating business – a Haagen-Dazs ice cream store in Reno, Nevada. Many businesses and a PhD in Organizational Psychology later, Andrea has experienced enough stress and anxiety to be an expert.

Today she is a Success Catalyst and known as Dr. Success™. Andrea is the founder, curator and author of the Don't Die™ self-development collection of books. Her latest book is Don't Die Waiting to Be Brave. As an expert in Applied Positive Psychology, she is her clients' success Sherpa, guiding them as they climb the mountain of success.

In today's Finding Brave you'll not only know when to ask for help, but who to ask and how to do it in order to flourish in your professional life. The choice to ask for help is ours, and we will create even more bravery and success when we know how much choice we really have.
