Ask for help
Somewhere along the way, many of us learned that needing help means we're failing. In my years of practice, I've found the opposite: the people who make lasting changes almost always have support.
Help can look like:
- asking your partner to handle dinner on your busiest night
- trading school pickups with another parent
- finding a walking buddy
- working with a practitioner who can guide you
Asking for help isn't weakness. It gives other people the chance to show up for you, and most of them are glad to.
Try this: name one thing on your plate this week that someone else could take off it. Then ask, simply and directly.
- connection
- self-care
- stress
