Why Is It So Hard to Ask for Help?


Listen Later

Why is asking for help so hard—even when we desperately need it? In this honest and light-hearted episode, two psychologists with lived experience unpack the emotional knots and social expectations that make help-seeking feel so awkward for people living with chronic health conditions.

Through humour, relatable stories, a sprinkle of psychological theory, and a couple of role plays, they explore how asking for help can be a powerful act of strength—not weakness. Whether you’re a seasoned chronic illness CEO or just sick of hauling your own grocery bags, this episode is your gentle nudge to lean in, let go, and lighten the load.
