Reminder of the Week - It's Okay to Need People - Ask For Help

Just a quick reminder on why it's totally okay & expected to need people in your life & really important to ask for help when you want & need it.

Show Notes:
Today I am here to remind you that even if you are the most independent person in the world, it’s still ok to need people.

It’s actually good to need people. Which is really tough for me to admit because I love doing things on my own because it makes me feel really good about myself. It’s also a pride issue. I’m sure I’m not alone in that. But it’s okay to need other people in your life.

And maybe you don’t want to have people directly help you with whatever is going on in your life, whether that is parenting, building a business, working on relationships, finding your passion, learning in school, anything & everything. It’s sometimes nice just to have people along with you on the journey. And it’s okay to want that & need that.

But maybe you have tried doing it all on your own for awhile now & it’s just too much. It’s also ok to come to the conclusion that you need help now & didn’t before. And this doesn’t mean you are weak or have failed in any way. If anything, it means you are stronger & wiser because you are getting the help you need to get it done & be the best you can be, even if that includes help.

And I know it can be tough to ask for help, but allowing yourself to be vulnerable enough to take that step is so important. It will give you the freedom you need to accomplish your task & strengthen your vulnerability & knowledge to know we don’t need to do life alone.

Also something I want to briefly mention is that by allowing someone to help you also blesses them. It can be so rewarding for someone to ask us for help, especially if we specialize in whatever help is being needed, but even in general it feels good to help others when they need it.

But this also brings me to my final point, you need to actually ask people for help.

You can’t expect the people in your life to read your mind & know exactly what you need, when you need it, despite what obvious signs might be presented in the midst of your situation.

It’s also not fair to have unknown expectations put on people, which is what this would be in believing others ‘should just know’ when you need help.

So again, it’s totally okay & expected to need other people & ask for help. And you should ask for help because others want to help & it gives you the opportunity to learn & grow from someone else’s perspective.

Thank you again for listening & I hope this episode was helpful.
