As we find ourselves in the midst of these uncertain times, we also find that many of us are adding more to our already full plates. Where we may have usually had the help of schools, babysitters, and babysitters, we’re not being called to take on those roles as well. With everything coming your way, especially in this moment, it can often feel like we just need to “suck it up” and get it done.
So today’s theme is going to be especially challenging for us capable, driven women!
Today’s theme is ASK.
If responsibility distribution with your partner is a little off-kilter right now, ask your partner for help. And be specific! Your request for help will often be better received when phrased “Hey, could you handle dinner tonight? I would really appreciate a night off.” instead of “Hey! Could you help me out around here?!”
If you’re struggling to get work done with the kids home, simply try asking, “Hey, could you play with your toys in the other room while I do some work?”
If you’re struggling with something and need advice, call a friend and ask, “Hey, do you have a few minutes to help me talk through this situation?”
Ask for what you need.
There is no way you can do it all by yourself, whether that means manage a household or grow a multiple six-figure business! Get comfortable asking for support. Voicing your needs and sharing that vulnerability is a muscle that improves over time.
