The Art of The Ask

How To Ask for What You Want


Listen Later

In this kickoff episode of "The Art of the Ask," a limited series podcast all about the power of asking for what you ACTUALLY want—whether in business, life, or relationships, I share how I've SHOT MY SHOT and gotten exactly what I wanted (and of course, how you can too)!


This episode starts with a definition of what "asking" actually means (you know my Virgo Moon/Rising loves a Latin root or definition), and how I built my "ask" muscle, first with landlord negotiations, and then with a massive wellness influencer...


What else to expect this episode:

- Why asking for what you want is often seen as "cringe" or selfish, and how to overcome this limiting mindset

- Real-life example of how I negotiated with my landlord and the ripple effects of those asks

- The importance of creating a win-win situation when making requests

- How asking led to unexpected DRAMATIC business growth, including landing podcast guest spots and new clients (like, LOTS of new clients)

- The law of reciprocity and why timing and empathy matter when making an ask

- The value of orbit-jumping: getting out of your echo chamber to reach new audiences and opportunities

- Actionable tips for pitching yourself, negotiating, and building collaborative relationships
