#187: Why Didn’t I Just Ask?

Why is asking for help sometimes harder than doing everything ourselves? This week, we unpack what keeps us from making the ask- from fear of rejection and inconveniencing others to vulnerability, trust, and the pressure to keep all the plates spinning. We reflect on knowing our people, recognizing our limits before we hit overwhelm, and remembering that accepting help can actually deepen our relationships. Sometimes, asking someone to show up isn’t a burden- it’s an invitation into community. Torn Thought: What could feel lighter this week if you simply asked for help? Plus, in What’s Mending You?, we talk about the gift of being trusted to help, reconnecting with longtime friends, and finding restoration in moments of reflection. 🎧 Come do parenting with us—because we can do it better together.
