How can we ask for care while balancing our needs and fears with others' capacities and needs?
In this episode of CareFull Practices, Ryder Fox discusses one of the most vulnerable parts of building relationships: asking for care. Many of us struggle between never asking because we fear being a burden, and asking in ways that unintentionally overwhelm others after years of our unmet needs. Through personal reflection and practical examples, Ryder examines how trauma, marginalization, and survival strategies shape the way we seek support.
In this episode, we invite you to explore what's getting in the way of asking for support, and begin practicing care requests that help you truly build mutually caring relationships.
We also have a downloadable template for formulating care requests that you can find here!
