Description

In this episode, we dive deep into the struggle of asking for help, especially for those who feel it equates to admitting weakness. Sharing personal experiences and societal observations, I challenge the deep-rooted mentality that asking for help signifies failure. Growing up watching women handle everything without seeking assistance, I've had my own journey of learning to accept help, especially after being diagnosed with a chronic illness. This episode emphasizes the importance of recognizing that asking for help is a strength, not a weakness. It allows others to show their support and helps to ensure that we take care of ourselves amidst our many responsibilities. Join me as I encourage you to break this 'stupid ass tradition,' reevaluate your support network, and confidently seek the help you deserve.

“Because simplifying life’s beautiful bitchiness? Yeah…that starts right here.”
