Why do some people always get asked for directions—even when they don’t actually know where they’re going?

In this episode, we explore a strange, funny, and surprisingly meaningful pattern: being the person strangers stop when they’re lost. From office complexes to subway stations to cities halfway across the world, this conversation unpacks why people don’t just look for answers—they look for safety.

It turns out that looking like you know where you’re going isn’t the same as actually knowing. And most of us, at some point, are only about 100 yards from where we need to be—we just don’t realize it yet.

🎧 Listen in as we talk about asking for help, being approachable, and the quiet responsibility of being someone others trust in moments that matter.

💡 What You’ll Learn: • Why people ask for directions more out of fear than confusion • The difference between knowing where you’re going and feeling grounded where you are • Why most adults are winging it more than they admit • How small moments of help can matter more than we realize • What it means to be a safe person in someone else’s hard moment

🛠️ Action Step: If you’re feeling lost, practice asking for directions—literally or metaphorically. And if people often come to you for help, pause and recognize it as a gift, not an interruption.

📌 Perfect For: • Anyone who feels like they’re “supposed” to have it all figured out • People who struggle to ask for help • Those who often find themselves helping strangers • Anyone who wants to show up with more patience and kindness
