Asking for Help is a Power Move: How Getting An Assist Propels us Toward Our Goals & Dreams

Here's a little secret: asking for help isn't a sign of weakness, but a catalyst that propels us towards our goals and dreams. The truth is, asking for help isn't always easy, it's something I have grappled with at times. But let me share with you how this simple act of asking for help transformed a live event at the recent International Festival of Arts and Ideas into a Reinvention Rebels podcast episode that can inspire your reinvention journey. It all started with a technical challenge for which I had no answer, but with the guidance of my amazing team, we made it happen. The result? A dynamic conversation with two  inspiring and remarkable women, Ellen Pankey and Lisa Franco. The opportunity to speak at the Festival was amazing and I'm so happy we could re-broadcast this conversation for our Reinvention Rebels audience as an episode. If you didn't have a chance to listen last week, you're in for a treat.In this short episode, I’m spilling the beans on the power of asking for help and how it made all the difference for me.You’ll learn:✅ Why we should ask for help more readily (people WANT to help us!) ✅ How I was specifically able to overcome my challenges by asking for help ✅ How asking for help propels us forward as we reinvent ourselvesI know so many capable women are used to doing everything themselves. I’ve so been there. But there’s so much grace in letting our guard down, being open and partnering with others to help us on our journey. Whether you're just starting out or have been on this journey for a while, I hope this episode will inspire you to get a little help from your friends as you take action towards your dreams.
